摘要:
An electrokinetic delivery or diagnostic device for personal use and self-administration of a medicament to a treatment site is provided. The device includes a housing containing a power supply, a first active electrode and a ground tactile electrode. An applicator includes a pad for containing medicament for overlying the first electrode of the device. The medicament may be applied by the user to the pad, contained within the pad or contained in rupturable capsules within the pad, together with a hydrogel if necessary for imparting electrical conductivity whereby, upon application of the applicator to the treatment site, the medicament is electrokinetically transported into the treatment site. In another form, the applicator is self-contained, having a power supply, a first electrode overlying a pad and a ground electrode from the opposite side from the pad whereby the individual presses the pad against the treatment site to complete the electrical circuit and electrokinetically drive the medicament into the treatment site.

摘要:
Novel multichannel ionosonic devices are described for the treatment of disorders of the skin and nails. In a preferred embodiment, the ionosonic device includes a multichannel ionophoretic driver used in combination with a multichannel dispersion electrode integrated with ultrasonic elements on a single application electrode. The ionosonic device can be configured in a variety of shapes for the treatment of skin disorders through the intradermal delivery of one or more of a variety of therapeutic and modulating agents. The devices described herein deliver the therapeutic agents to the targeted diseased area, obviating the need for systemic ingestion and increasing the therapeutic efficacy for a variety of disorders of the skin and nails thereby sparing the individual from the toxic side effects of the therapeutic agent taken systemically.

An electrokinetic delivery system for personal use in self-administration of a medicament to a treatment site on an individual includes a device shaped to conform with the shape of a portion of an individual's finger from a tip thereof to a location past the first finger joint. A self-contained power source is carried by the device and a first electrode is carried by the device adjacent a distal end portion thereof and the tip of the individual's finger. The first electrode is in electrical contact with the power source. A second electrode is carried by the device for contact with the individual's finger. The second electrode is in electrical contact with the power source. Upon application of the first electrode over a treatment site with the medicament disposed between the first electrode and the treatment site and completion of an electrical circuit through the individual's body and said electrode, the device applies current for electrokinetically driving the medicament into the treatment site.
