Transdermal patches are a method of drug delivery in which an adhesive patch provides a pre-prescribed dose of medication that is absorbed through the skin and into the bloodstream. The term ‘transdermal’ describes a delivery method used for administering pharmaceuticals. These patches are designed for short-term or long-term administration and can either be electronic or mechanical. Transdermal patches adhere to the skin as a way to deliver drugs. They provide a specific, predetermined dose of medicine which is absorbed through the skin and into the blood. Although comparable to oral-dosage forms in efficacy, skin patches have several advantages over oral forms. They provide a non-invasive and painless method of drug delivery.
