Abstract

See full text

A method for determining and demonstrating the role of vasodilator chemical agents in the development and practice of transdermal drug delivery systems. Vasodilator chemicals applied topically dilate the blood vessels in the skin tissue, which have been shown to facilitate or inhibit systemic or skin tissue deposition of drug substances. The level of stimulation and/or inhibition has been found to be dependent on the concentration and the identity of the specific vasodilator chemical(s) used as well as the drug molecule(s) to be delivered. This work teaches the need to consider specific formulation requirements when dealing with vasodilator chemicals for the creation of successful delivery vehicles in the transdermal drug delivery system. These requirements for very low concentrations of vasodilators were an unexpected and a surprise finding, in contrast to the concentrations of the vasodilators typically used to elicit an increase in skin blood flow.
