  • Device for enhanced electrotransport agent delivery
    Patent number: 6083190
    Abstract: An electrotransport composition comprises at least one C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 lower alcohol, unsaturated derivatives thereof, or mixtures thereof, and at least one C.sub.8 -C.sub.4 higher alcohol, unsaturated derivatives thereof, or mixtures thereof. An electrotransport device and a method of increasing transdermal electrotransport flux utilize the composition of the invention for delivering pharmaceutically-acceptable agents across a body surface such as skin.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 14, 1998
    Date of Patent: July 4, 2000
    Assignee: ALZA Corporation
    Inventors: J. Richard Gyory, Jane Yieh, James A. Huntington, Michel Cormier

  • Iontophoretic delivery method
    Patent number: 5167616
    Abstract: An improved method for delivering a drug or beneficial agent transdermally to humans by iontophoresis is provided. The method includes selecting and iontophoretically delivering the drug through a skin site which optimizes the transdermal delivery rate of the drug while minimizing inter-patient variability in skin resistance.
