摘要:
An apparatus for dermal treatment of an active substance having certain physical properties having a flexible, wearable patch conformable to the contour of a skin surface and having: a first electrode adapted to communicate the active substance into the skin by application of an electrical current on the skin surface, a second electrode capable of closing an electrical circuit with the skin surface, a power source for providing a current and voltage connected through a conductive media to the first and second electrode, and an apparatus for substantially controlling penetration depth of the active substance by selecting at least one variable from a plurality of variables.
摘要:
A kit, device and method for delivering an oxidizing agent onto and/or into the body are disclosed. Moreover, a dermal patch device, which delivers an oxidizing agent using iontophoresis and or electroosmosis onto and/or into the body is disclosed. Furthermore, use of a dermal patch device for treatment of a body area with an oxidizing agent is disclosed. The device may be a thin and flexible dermal patch. A method of using such a device/kit for treatment of a disorder of a body area with an oxidizing agent is also disclosed.
摘要:
The present invention is of a kit and electricity generating device for delivery of an encapsulated composition or mixture of compositions, including an electricity generating device and at least one composition in an encapsulated carrier vehicle which is contacted or applied to the electricity generating device. In some embodiments the device includes a means for maintaining stability of the encapsulated composition prior to bio-membrane penetration. The present invention also provides methods of use thereof. Furthermore, the present invention provides a device and method for delivering a fixed ratio of compounds from a mixture to a bio-membrane comprising the step of electro-transporting an encapsulated mixture of compounds. Still further, the present invention is of a device and method for delivering each compound of a mixture of compounds to the same penetration depth.
摘要:
Methods, apparatus, and kits for onychomycosis treatment are presented. In one embodiment, a kit for treatment includes an anti-fungal agent, in a composition, and an electrically powered patch. Exemplary embodiments of the patch include a first electrode, a power source having a first and second terminal, a second electrode coupled to the second terminal of the power source, and a base member supporting the first electrode, the second electrode, and the power source. Embodiments include those where the first and second electrode and power source are printed on the base member. Anti-fungal agents may be unionized while the composition includes an ionizing agent. Home use may be practiced, as embodiments include those in which the voltage or current of the power source cannot be adjusted by a user. Exemplary methods include the selection of a nail or diseased area to which treatment is desired and administering the kit as described.
