A flexible, liquid-absorbing, adhesive skin reservoir includes a backing element and a substrate attached to the backing element. The substrate comprises a homogeneous, hydrophilic, stable matrix including a solid phase formed of a synthetic polymer and/or a long chain natural or synthetic polysaccharide, or a combination thereof. The liquid phase of the matrix consists of water, hydric alcohol, carbohydrates and/or proteins in an aqueous solution, and/or a combination thereof. The matrix contains a medicament therein for release to the affected areas for local and/or systemic medicinal effect.

Drug dispensing device for transdermal delivery of medicaments

A dressing for use in treating dry socket syndrome resulting from tooth extraction includes a gauze strip impregnated with a gelatinous material containing petrolatum, emulsifiers and an analgesic substance such as eugenol. In the process of making and packaging the dry socket dressing, a strip of gauze is unrolled from a roll and passed through a bath containing a gelatinous material at a rate to permit a six-inch length of gauze to incorporate approximately two grams of gelatinous material. The impregnated strip is then cut into predetermined lengths and thereafter packaged in a transparent, sealed envelope. The package containing the dry socket dressing is then treated with gamma radiation to sterilize the dressing and interior of the envelope.
