DEVICE HAVING COATED MICRO PROJECTIONS FOR CARRYING OUT TRANSDERMAL DRUG DELIVERY

摘要

FIELD: medical engineering. ^ SUBSTANCE: device has member having a set of micro projections puncturing corneal layer and dry member coating. The coating is known to contain aqueous solution of given pharmacologically active compound. The pharmacologically active compound shows required therapeutic activity when introduced in the amount of not less than 1 mg. Said compound water solubility is somewhat higher than 50 mg/kg and the aqueous solution viscosity is somewhat less than 500 centipoises. ^ EFFECT: simplified drug delivery mechanism. ^ 37 cl, 10 dwg
