An alcohol-free, transdermal drug delivery composition administered via a metered spray drug delivery device is described herein. The non-occlusive transdermal drug delivery composition includes a therapeutically effective amount of at least one physiologically active agent or prodrug thereof, an effective amount of at least one dermal penetration enhancer; and at least one non-volatile liquid. The transdermal drug delivery composition is administered to a dermal or mucosal surface of an animal needing the same using a metered spray device capable of delivering a fine spray of substantially uniform particle size to minimize the required drying time therefor.
