A transdermal patch is a modern technique of pain management designed to treat chronic pain and other conditions. Also known as a skin patch, a transdermal patch is a medicated adhesive patch, which is placed on the skin to deliver regular doses of medication into the bloodstream through the skin. Transdermal delivery systems have gained extensive attention due to the ease of administration and absence of hepatic first-pass metabolism. These patches are also used to treat migraine, hormones, pain, cardiovascular diseases, neurology disease, smoking cessation, among others. Currently, the use of transdermal drug delivery has increased due to improved bioavailability, reduced adverse events, reduced dosing frequency, and drug input termination at any point by the removal of the patch.
