Explore their unique advantages and identify the best fit for your formulation needs.
Transdermal patches offer an innovative delivery method that enhances drug efficacy, improves patient convenience, and sets your product apart in the competitive market. They provide sustained drug release, bypass the gastrointestinal tract, avoid first-pass hepatic metabolism, and offer a noninvasive solution for conditions requiring continuous medication delivery.
Most drugs can be formulated into transdermal patches, depending on permeability, stability, and therapeutic needs. A feasibility study can determine if transdermal delivery is the right option for your API, offering potential solutions for challenging formulations.
Transdermal patches offer controlled drug release over time, typically ranging from several hours to one week. The release rate can be tailored to meet therapeutic goals, ensuring consistent drug absorption and minimizing peak-trough fluctuations that are typically observed with oral medications.
Transdermal patches provide numerous benefits compared to tablets and capsules:
Yes, transdermal patches significantly enhance patient compliance. Their ease of application, discreet design, visibility of drug therapy, and ability to provide continuous dosing make them an attractive option for patients who may struggle with frequent pill intake or injection schedules.
Transdermal patches improve drug absorption by delivering medication directly through the skin with safe and proven permeation enhancers. This method avoids gastrointestinal barriers and first-pass metabolism, resulting in more efficient therapeutic effects.
Transdermal patches utilize USP/NF compendial or GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) excipients, which ensure stability, skin compatibility, and effective drug delivery. Common excipients include adhesive polymers, permeation enhancers, and skin-friendly stabilizers.
