The present invention relates to a transdermal delivery device disposal system for disposing of a transdermal delivery device containing at least one pharmaceutically active component. The disposal system contains at least one sheet or substrate on which an adhesive is coated; and one or more of the following components: (a) monomer, and optionally comonomer(s), to be polymerized; (b) an initiator, and optionally co-initiator(s), to initiate the polymerization; (c) at least one crosslinking agent to crosslink the (co)polymer; and (d) at least one deactivating agent to chemically alter, to degrade, and/or to deactivate the active component(s) contained in the transdermal delivery device, such as an opioid antagonist or an opioid agonist deactivating agent so that the euphoric effects of the active component(s) contained in the transdermal delivery device are at least temporarily inhibited, diminished, or halted in vivo, wherein at least one adhesive-coated sheet or substrate adheres to, immobilizes, or isolates, and prevents, inhibits, or diminishes the misuse or abuse of the active component contained in, at least one transdermal delivery device. |
