| Abstract: | Following the introduction of the scopolamine transdermal drug delivery system (TDDS) in 1979 approved by the US-Food and Drug Administration, TDDS has been applied to different active ingredients. The choice of the active ingredient as a candidate for TDDS relied on pharmacokinetic profile, dosage frequency and use characteristics. Despite the availability of the system for the past forty years, the dosage form is challenged with lack of popularity. The aim of this study was to understand reasons for lack of popularity by establishing a framework for the risk analysis of TDDS. [excerpt] |
