Transdermal drug delivery is a large and growing vertical market of the Pharmaceutical industry. Transdermal drug delivery is defined as a system that utilizes skin as a site for continuous drug administration into the systemic circulation. Several methods of transdermal drug delivery include plasters, various ointments and, most commonly, patches. Transdermal drug administration has several advantages.

First, the method of delivery is non-invasive, which is much less traumatic to the patient as compared to other forms of drug delivery. Also, it can be effective in assuring that a patient receives a full dosage of a drug and helps in increasing the compliance rate. However, there are difficulties associated with administering medication through the skin. The natural function of the skin is to act as a protective barrier, so it is often the case that drugs are not chemically suitable to penetrating the skin.
