TRANSDERMAL/TRANSMUCOSAL PREPARATIONS FOR ELECTROPORATION

摘要

It is intended to provide transdermal/transmucosal preparations for electroporation whereby compounds (drugs, etc.) can be effectively administered. A transdermal/transmucosal preparation for electroporation which comprises a drug-pooling layer (11) wherein a compound to be administered (a physiologically active substance) such as a drug is dispersed in a solid or semi-solid base, a backing (12) supporting the drug-pooling layer and a pair of electrodes (13) for electroporation formed on the drug-pooling layer (11). At the flange of the backing (12), a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (14) is provided. Further, the electroporation electrode (13) is provided with an insulating layer (15) which is formed at least in the part being in contact with the application site but not on the drug-pooling layer (11).
