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.
In the recent years, transdermal patches have proven to be one of the most effective pain management techniques for the treatment of chronic pain.
When administered through this form, the drug is absorbed slowly, requiring 12 to 24 hours to peak, and then giving persistent serum levels for as long as 17 hours after the patch is removed.
