Patent number: 10342968Abstract: The present invention verifies a method of reducing skin irritation (particularly, cumulative skin irritation) caused by transdermal administration of a local anesthetic using iontophoresis, and provides an electrode pad for relief from a puncture pain which is safe not only at single administration but also at repeated administrations. The electrode pad comprises a base sheet; an electrode placed on the base sheet; an adhesive sheet placed on the base sheet and having an opening, within which the electrode being exposed; and a medicament reservoir containing a local anesthetic and placed in the opening of the adhesive sheet while being in contact with the electrode. An inner peripheral surface of the opening of the adhesive sheet and an outer peripheral surface of the medicament reservoir are prevented from coming into contact with human skin while contacting with each other, and thereby skin irritation is reduced.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2011Date of Patent: July 9, 2019Assignee: TEIKOKU SEIYAKU CO., LTD.Inventors: Akihiro Hasui, Atsuhiko Shiraishi, Ken-ichi Hattori, Shinji Tanaka, Hirokazu Takahashi, Makoto Takahashi

Patent number: 9517331Abstract: An iontophoresis patch is equipped with a donor gel and a reference gel which are disposed to contact an external conductor, for example, the skin of a patient and thereby output current from a current-carrying device to the external conductor. The iontophoresis patch includes: a donor portion having the donor gel containing a medical agent to be penetrated into the external conductor; a reference portion having a reference gel, mounted with the current-carrying device on the surface on the side opposite to the reference gel, and disposed on the external conductor apart from the donor portion; and an electrode film for supplying current from the current-carrying device to the donor gel and the reference gel.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2011Date of Patent: December 13, 2016Assignees: TERUMO KABUSHIKI KAISHA, TEIKOKU SEIYAKU CO., LTD.Inventors: Mitsutoshi Yaegashi, Akihiro Hasui, Hiroyuki Kubo

Patent number: 9433772Abstract: The present invention provides an electrode device used in iontophoresis treatment, in which an electrode layer used for introduction of medication can be contacted to a medication reservoir layer with a simple manner, and in which the medication reservoir layer can be reliably held when the medication is introduced into a skin. A main-electrode layer 3 and a sub-electrode layer 1 are secured on a substrate 6 while both the layers are being insulated from each other. The main-electrode layer 3 is intended for introduction of the medication, and the sub-electrode layer 1 is provided to hold the medication reservoir layer 5 on the substrate 6. The medication reservoir layer 5 is located on the substrate 6, so as to be in contact with the main-electrode layer 3 and the sub-electrode layer 1. The medication reservoir layer 5 is a gel containing halogen compound, and the sub-electrode layer 1 comprises a metal having a lower ionization tendency than hydrogen.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2010Date of Patent: September 6, 2016Assignee: TEIKOKU SEIYAKU CO., LTD.Inventor: Akihiro Hasui

Publication number: 20150246215Abstract: An iontophoresis patch which outputs an electric current from an energizing device to an external conductor comprises: a donor portion that has a first contact member; a reference portion that has a second contact member and is located on the external conductor away from the donor portion; and an electrode body that has a first electrode and a second electrode and that extends across the donor portion and the reference portion. The electrode body has a single-sided wiring structure in which the first electrode and the second electrode are formed by a conductive ink being printed on one side of a film, the printing pattern of the first electrode has a gap area in which the conductive ink is not printed, and the film and the first contact member are transparent.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 25, 2012Publication date: September 3, 2015Applicants: TEIKOKU SEIYAKU CO., LTD., TERUMO KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Mitsutoshi Yaegashi, Akihiro Hasui

Patent number: 8652522Abstract: It is an object of the present inventions to produce a pharmaceutical composition for the iontophoresis wherein a drug stability is excellent, and it is easy to blend and fill up when manufactured and it is possible to manufacture at low cost. A pharmaceutical composition for an iontophoresis according to the present invention, is characterized in that the composition contains a nonionic synthetic polymer, betamethasone sodium phosphate and solvent. Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment of a pharmaceutical composition for an iontophoresis according to the present invention, the composition is characterized in that the nonionic synthetic polymer is polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment of a pharmaceutical composition for an iontophoresis according to the present invention, the composition is characterized in that the mixing amount of the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is 0.5 to 30.0 percent by weight.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2010Date of Patent: February 18, 2014Assignee: Teikoku Seiyaku Co., Ltd.Inventors: Akihiro Hasui, Takamitsu Miyagi
