Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a nonaqueous tape that is stable and has high percutaneous absorption performance, and that contains pramipexole hydrochloride, which is slightly soluble in organic solvents and has high crystallinity. The present invention could produce a nonaqueous tape that is stable and has high percutaneous absorption performance by dissolving pramipexole, using a combination of a fatty acid ionic liquid and a divalent alcohol and a fatty acid ester. As a result, it has become possible to provide a transdermal patch (tape) containing pramipexole for the treatment of Parkinson's disease with which the problems associated with a conventional water-containing poultice of discoloration of the preparation and stability of the pramipexole can be solved.
