Abstract
The invention deals with devices, in particular with bandage strips, for a transdermal delivery of drugs to patients, whereby the drug formulations include highly viscous preparations, topical solutions of a low viscosity and micro-emulsions of a low viscosity containing the drugs. Depending on the consistency of the medium containing the drug, the drug formulation is stored in a reservoir, consisting, e.g., of a punched out cavity or of an absorbent piece of material, which is encased or supported by a carrier element (a foamed material piece or a non-woven fleece tape) adhering to the skin by means of a skin-compatible adhesive, whereby specially formed protective films are applied at the filling and delivery side during the storage of the device to prevent a lateral migration, and whereby during its use, the device can be refilled with dosed amounts by the patient without requiring a removal of the device from the skin surface to be treated (FIG. 2).
