Abstract: The present disclosure is drawn to an adhesive peel-forming formulation for dermal delivery of a drug, comprising a drug, a solvent vehicle, and a polymer peel-forming agent. The solvent vehicle can comprise a volatile solvent system comprising one or more volatile solvent, and a non-volatile solvent system comprising two or more non-volatile solvents. The non-volatile solvent system can have a solubility with respect to the drug that is within a window of operable solubility such that the drug is deliverable at therapeutically effective rates over a sustained period of time.

Abstract: The present invention is drawn to adhesive peel-forming formulations for dermal delivery of a drug. The formulation can include a drug, a solvent vehicle, and a peel-forming agent. The solvent vehicle can include a volatile solvent system having one or more volatile solvent, and a non-volatile solvent system having one or more non-volatile solvent, wherein the non-volatile solvent system has a solubility for the drug that is within a window of operable solubility for the drug such that the drug can be delivered at therapeutically effective rates over a sustained period of time. The formulation can have a viscosity suitable for application to a skin surface prior to evaporation of the volatile solvents system. When applied to the skin, the formulation can form a solidified peelable layer after at least a portion of the volatile solvent system is evaporated.

Abstract: Solid-forming local anesthetic formulations for pain control can include a lidocaine base and tetracaine base, polyvinyl alcohol, water, and an emulsifier. The formulation can be prepared to be in a semi-solid state prior to application to a skin surface, can form a soft solidified layer after application, and can provide pain relief when applied to a skin surface proximate a pain site.

Abstract: Systems and methods for transdermal drug delivery with controlled heat are provided. Such systems can comprise a heating apparatus that includes an exothermic chemical composition, typically in the form of individual heating elements. The heating apparatus can be exposed to ambient oxygen through a cover. The cover can reduce the amount of ambient oxygen capable of contacting the chemical composition compared to when the cover is not present. In some embodiments, the heating apparatus can include more than one heating element. The systems can further include a drug-containing layer that includes a drug. The drug-containing layer can have a surface area of about 50 cm2 to about 400 cm2. The systems of the present invention can be deliver ketoprofen in an amount sufficient to produce a mean blood plasma concentration of ketoprofen in a human subject of at least 45 ng/ml within four hours after initial application of the system to a skin surface.

Abstract: The present invention is drawn to systems and methods for reducing unintended use of an active ingredient, such as residual active ingredients present in spent dermal patches and peels. The system can include a dermal patch including an active ingredient and a destructive agent configured to chemically react with the active ingredient. The destructive agent can be present in a container or an absorber. In one embodiment, the absorber can be used within the container. The container can be configured to receive the dermal patch such that the active ingredient contacts the destructive agent within the container. The absorber can be configured to contact the dermal patch such that the active ingredient contacts the destructive agent of the absorber. Additionally, systems and methods for impeding the unintended use of an active ingredient, such as those present in dermal patches or peels, are also provided.
