MEDICINE-HOLDING MICRONEEDLE ARRAY AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING SAME

摘要

The present invention provides a drug-holding microneedle array in which a drug is applied and held only on a tip portion of microneedles for quantitatively holding the drug and for preventing the drug from falling away during insertion of the microneedles. The drug-holding microneedle array comprises: a microneedle array having a microneedle substrate 4 and microneedles, the microneedles being positioned in plural on the microneedle substrate 4 and a tip portion 1 of the microneedles projecting via steps 2; and a drug held on the tip portion of the microneedles and the steps 2.
