Abstract
An iontophoretic bioelectrode includes an enclosure forming upper sheet of material having a generally planar outer section circumscribing a raised central section which defines an interior compartment. A compliant, resilient and sticky raised barrier is formed on the underside of the outer section of the upper sheet of material to circumscribe the central section. When placed against the skin of a person, the barrier adheres to the skin to form a seal completely around the central section and interior compartment into which an ion carrying solution may then be introduced for administration, by iontophoresis, into a persons' skin.
