  • Patent number: 8617591
    Abstract: An improved Transdermal Delivery System (TDS) comprising a backing layer inert to the components of the matrix, a self-adhesive matrix containing rotigotine and a protective foil or sheet to be removed prior to use, characterized in that the self-adhesive matrix consists of a solid or semi-solid semi-permeable polymer (1) wherein rotigotine in its free base form has been incorporated, (2) which is saturated with rotigotine and contains said rotigotine as a multitude of microreservoirs within the matrix, (3) which is highly permeable for the free base of rotigotine, (4) which is impermeable for the protonated form of rotigotine, (5) wherein the maximum diameter of the microreservoirs is less than the thickness of the matrix. is provided. Said TDS provides for enhanced flux of rotigotine across the TDS/skin interface.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8246979
    Abstract: An improved transdermal delivery system (TDS) comprises a self-adhesive matrix comprising a solid or semi-solid semi-permeable polymer which contains rotigotine in its free base form as a multitude of microreservoirs within the matrix. The self-adhesive matrix is highly permeable to the free base of rotigotine and is impermeable to the protonated form of rotigotine.

  • Patent number: 8246980
    Abstract: An improved transdermal delivery system (TDS) comprises a self-adhesive matrix comprising a solid or semi-solid semi-permeable polymer which contains an amine-functional drug in its free base form as a multitude of microreservoirs within the matrix. The self-adhesive matrix is highly permeable to the free base of the amine-functional drug and is impermeable to the protonated form of the amine-functional drug.
