TRANSDERMAL DELIVERY SYSTEM FOR ANTI-EMETIC MEDICATION

摘要

The present invention provides a transdermal delivery system for hydrophilic anti-emetic agents and methods of using thereof. The system includes an anti-emetic hydrophilic adhesive composition of a hydrophilic polymer and hydrophilic anti-emetic agent, a patch containing at least one hydrophilic layer of the composition, and an apparatus that generates hydrophilic micro-channels in skin of a subject using the patch or composition. The system preferably avoids the use of penetration enhancers and is particularly useful for transdermal delivery of hydrophilic anti-emetic agents.
