Abstract
The invention relates to transdermal therapeutic systems which have the active ingredient nicotine and have particularly high flexibility. This flexibility decisively improves wearer comfort on the skin, since the system is readily capable of adapting to the surface of the skin and its constant movement. Surprisingly, the nicotine TTS of the invention is markedly more flexible than the conventional nicotine TTS products which are leaders in the market, although at least some of those systems are comparably thin.
