Definitions

  • the invention relates to a transdermal system for administering at least two substances through the skin by means of an electric current according to the preamble of the independent claim.
  • transdermal systems serve to administer a substance, for example therapeutically active substances or mixtures of substances, through the skin of a living being, without using a device such as, for. B. an injection needle to mechanically clearly penetrate the outer layer of skin - the stratum comeum - and possibly also underlying skin layers.
  • Transdermal systems are therefore normally non-invasive forms of administration.
  • transdermal systems The great interest in transdermal systems is due to the fact that this form of administration has clear advantages over other customary methods.
  • undesirable side effects often occur due to incompatibilities in the gastrointestinal tract or in the liver.
  • Orally administered substances are often already decomposed in the gastrointestinal tract or in the liver or modified in such a way that the desired therapeutic effect no longer occurs ("first-pass" effect).
  • Other forms of parenteral administration such as intravenous, subcutaneous or intramuscular injections, are associated with skin penetration or skin layers and are therefore associated with a sensation of pain for the patient. Local inflammation or infection due to partial skin damage can also occur.
  • Transdermal systems are not subject to these restrictions, today, in particular in the form of a typical representative, namely the transdermal patch, they are among the common dosage forms which are widely used.
  • Transdermal systems can be roughly divided into passive and active systems.
  • the passive systems the substance to be administered diffuses through the skin from a reservoir.
  • the active systems an additional force accelerates substance transport through the skin.
  • Electrical fields that generate a current flow through the skin are particularly preferably used here.
  • the administration of a therapeutically active substance through the skin by means of an electric current is generally referred to as iontophoresis.
  • iontophoretic systems used today include at least two electrodes, one of which contacts the reservoir with the substance.
  • the other electrode often referred to as an indifferent electrode, is attached directly to the skin and is used to close the circuit through the body.
  • an electrical energy source When connected to an electrical energy source, a current flows through the skin that transports the substance into the body.
  • passive substance transport takes place accompanying such active systems.
  • a disadvantage of today's passive transdermal systems results from the fact that the diffusion process via the natural channels of the skin (sebaceous and sweat glands, inter- and transcellular transport routes, hair follicles) is very slow. It is therefore difficult, in particular, to administer a substance through the stratum comeum with a dose rate that is sufficiently high for the desired therapeutic effect by means of a passive transde ⁇ nale system.
  • the dose rate is the amount of substance that is administered through the skin per time.
  • active especially iontophoretic systems generally allow higher dosing rates.
  • the latter systems have the further advantage that the metering rate can be influenced and changed in a simple manner in a controlled manner.
  • the current as an active control element during administration, it is possible, for example, to adapt the dosing rate to the individual needs of the patient.
  • Therapeutically useful dosing schemes are also feasible, e.g. B. phases with higher dosing rates and phases with low dosing rates can alternate.
  • iontophoretic systems have the advantage that the substance to be administered is virtually “on demand”. The substance can be started or stopped simply by activating or deactivating the electrical current flow.
  • the current strength that can be used is subject to iontophoretic systems Physiological limitations, because an excessive electric current can, for example, cause burns or other irritation to the skin. Therefore, there is a need to control or increase the dosing rate in ways other than just the electric current.
  • One way to control or change the dosing rate is to administer the therapeutically active substance together with an agent which has an influence on the blood flow in the capillary vessels of the skin.
  • Such a method is disclosed for example in EP-A-0, a448,300. With this method, a composition is first generated which, in addition to the therapeutically active substance, also contains a vascular-manipulating agent. This is then followed by the iontophoretic administration of this composition.
  • the vascular manipulating agent is a vasodilator, it increases the blood flow through the capillary vessels of the skin and thus leads to a higher dosage rate for the therapeutically active substance. If the vascular-manipulating agent is a vascular-contracting agent, it reduces the blood flow through the capillary vessels, which leads to a depot effect for the therapeutically active substance. Since the vascular manipulating agent and the therapeutically active substance are administered together, this process is referred to as "coiontophoresis".
  • the concentration of the vasodilator initially shows an increase in the Dosage rate for the therapeutically active substance, which is followed by a decrease with increasing concentration of the vasodilator.
  • an optimal composition of the therapeutically active substance and the vascular manipulating agent must first be determined in a time-consuming manner so that the desired effect occurs in the co-iontophoresis of the two substances
  • the transdermal system for the administration of at least two substances through the skin by means of electric current that achieves this object is characterized by the features of independent claim 1.
  • means for spatial separation of the substances from one another are thus provided in the transdermal system, by means of which the administration of the substances begins with a time offset relative to one another.
  • This controlled sequential administration leads to a significant increase in efficiency.
  • the substance administered first can have its full effect in the skin before another substance gets into the skin.
  • a vessel-widening agent first administered can first increase the blood flow through the capillary vessels of the skin, and only then does a therapeutically effective administration take place Substance, which is then better absorbed by the already dilated blood vessels. The delay in administration thus leads to a more efficient use of the individual substances and consequently reduces the amount of substance required.
  • the metering rates for the individual substances can also be controlled. Because e.g. B. at the start of administration essentially only the first substance travels through the skin, such competitive effects as mentioned above practically do not occur.
  • Fe he can also be a controlled change in the concentrations of the substances during use, for example, a concentration of Substances in the transdermal system, which means that the substances are present in the transfer device in a higher concentration than originally in the reservoir.
  • concentration during use leads to a significant increase in the dosing rate because the substances are concentrated in the vicinity of the skin and this results in an increase in the passive transport rate, which accompanies the electrically-induced transport of the substances through the skin
  • the substances are located together in a storage layer which is contained in the reservoir.
  • the spatial separation of the substances takes place when walking through a separation layer which is contained in the transfer device.
  • the separating layer has the property that the rate of migration of the different substances is different in it. This property leads to the spatial separation and thus to the sequential administration of the substances.
  • the substances are to be additionally concentrated in this exemplary embodiment, it is particularly advantageous - as will be explained further below - if the separating layer has a higher electrical conductivity than the storage layer.
  • the reservoir comprises at least two spatially separated storage layers, each of which contains at least one substance.
  • a modification layer which spatially separates the storage layers from one another, is particularly preferably located between the storage layers.
  • a further modification layer can be provided in the transfer device, which is arranged such that it contacts the storage layer of the reservoir closest to the skin.
  • the dosing rates for the substances and the time delay between the administration of the substances can be controlled in this exemplary embodiment in particular via the thickness of the modification layers between the individual storage layers and via the migration speeds with which the substances migrate through the individual layers.
  • the different storage layers can contain the same substance in different concentrations. Due to the time delay with which the substance contained in different storage layers is administered, the metering rate can be designed to be variable in time, that is to say it can be modulated. This has the advantage that the therapeutic efficiency can be increased even further because the dosing schedule can be adapted to the time-varying needs of the patient.

  • the ions of the first substance migrate through the separating layer 3 at a different migration speed than the ions of the second substance. This results in a spatial separation of the ions of the first substance from those of the second substance as it travels through the separation layer.

However, this means that there is a greater electric field strength in the storage layer 2 than in the separating layer 3.
  • the migration speed of the ions of a substance is essentially determined by the product of the local electric field strength and the electrophoretic mobility, it follows that the migration speed of this ion type mainly depends on the same mobility of the ions of a substance in the storage layer 2 and the separation layer 3 depends on the respective electric field strength in layers 2 and 3
