  • Patent number: 10376474
    Abstract: A patch for external use which has a laminate structure comprising a substrate and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer which contains a styrene/isoprene/styrene block copolymer as the base and further contains a tackifier resin consisting of a rosin resin and at least one other tackifier resin, a softening agent consisting of polybutene and liquid paraffin, a fatty acid ester, and fentanyl, characterized in that the weight ratio of the rosin resin to fentanyl is 1 to 5, the weight ratio of the rosin resin to the whole tackifier resin is 0.1 to 0.6, and the tackifier resin accounts for 30 to 60 wt % of the whole pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. The patch is excellent in the permeation of fentanyl through the skin and in storage stability, and is weak in irritation to skin.

  • Patent number: 10143662
    Abstract: Disclosed is a fentanyl-containing adhesive preparation for external use, wherein an adhesive layer is laminated on a supporting body. The adhesive layer contains SIS, a tackifier resin that is composed of a rosin resin and terpene resin, and a softener that is composed of a plybutene and a liquid paraffin. The adhesive layer also contains fentanyl as an active ingredient. The fentanyl-containing adhesive preparation for external use has excellent skin permeation of fentanyl and high preparation stability, without suffering from crystallization of fentanyl during storage.

  • Patent number: 8486442
    Abstract: An external patch capable of stable prolonged release and transdermal absorption of active ingredient hormones (estrogens and/or progestogens) contained in a pressure sensitive adhesive layer, which external patch ensures low irritation on the skin. In particular, an external patch comprising a support and, superimposed thereon, a pressure sensitive adhesive layer, characterized in that the pressure sensitive adhesive layer comprises, as indispensable components, 5 to 50 wt. % of styrene/isoprene/styrene block copolymer, 20 to 70 wt. % of tackifier resin, 10 to 60 wt. % of softener and 1 to 20 wt. % of polyvinylpyrrolidone and contains, as an active ingredient, estrogen and/or progestogen.
