Abstract : In developing a transdermal delivery system, two criteria are considered: one is achieving adequate flux across the skin and the other is minimizing the lag time in skin permeation. Transdermal drug delivery system facilitates the passage of therapeutic quantities of drug substances through the skin and into the general circulation for their systemic effects. Topical administration of drug with systemic effect can have advantages over other methods for several reasons, one of which is the avoidance of hepatic first-pass metabolism of the drug and related toxicity effects, controlling the rate of delivery and modulating distribution of drug in the systemic circulation.
