Abstract
A transdermal device mountable to skin includes a porator to lower barriers to transdermal delivery of drugs, enzymes, reagents and the like. The device further includes a mechanical bias that applies a displacement force to the porator to thereby better ensure good physical contact between the porator and the skin. A device so constructed can include an on-board energy storage device so that the porator can operate free of any concurrent connection to any external source of power.
