Development And Characterization Of Transdermal Patches Of Fluphenazine

Abstract

The bulk of small molecule medications are often administered orally, making oral and parenteral routes the most popular drug delivery methods. Predetermined dosages, mobility, and patient self-administration are the benefits of the oral route. Because of these factors, the oral route continues to be the most practical way to administer drugs. Therefore, injection is the main method of delivering macromolecules. However, this method has drawbacks, including the need for a professional administrator to give the injections, their intrusive character, which causes discomfort, and patients' decreased acceptability or compliance. It stands to reason that enhanced drug administration techniques like transdermal drug delivery (TDD) may be able to overcome the many inherent constraints of traditional medicine delivery methods. With methods like transdermal patches that adhere to a portion of the skin, we could be enhancing the therapeutic efficacy of medications. By arranging several penetration enhancers, the patch's strength of adhesion produces a strong penetration ability of TDDs.
