2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, various efforts have been made to enhance drug absorption in patches and the like. For example, many inventions containing a warming substance (eg capsaicin, capsaicinoid, capsicum extract, capsicum tincture) have been proposed. There are some (for example, JP-A-3-184915) and some are already on the market. Although not commercially available, many inventions relating to a patch combining a heating element (so-called instant body warmer using a metal powder) and the like are known.

However, the patch containing the warming sensation-imparting substance has a certain effect, but the absorption is not so high as compared with a normal patch. The combination of heating elements is of course effective, but the heating time is long and it is difficult to control the temperature.
In some cases, low temperature burns may occur. In addition, skin irritation may occur, or the drug may increase linearly after absorption starts, resulting in excessive absorption. Various measures have been taken to prevent such defects (for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-17).
No. 0644, JP-A-7-284506, etc.), but these cannot be said to have sufficiently solved their drawbacks. Furthermore, the formulations of these inventions are complicated in structure and, therefore, the production process is long, which is costly and economically disadvantageous. Although the heating element is stored in an airtight bag, etc., it cannot completely prevent aging (it is no longer used as a heating element).

In the present invention, as described below, it is possible to enhance the transdermal absorption of a drug in an ideal form by treating the skin with moxibustion before or during the administration of the transdermal preparation, This can result in unexpectedly high drug concentrations in the skin and muscle. This is because moxibustion treatment produces micropores in the stratum corneum of the skin, thereby enhancing drug absorption. In this case, not only the percutaneous absorption of the drug is promoted, but the drug is transferred to a deeper part of the skin, and the absorption of the drug is promoted immediately after administration of the transdermal absorption preparation (absorption starts immediately after administration). Unlike the conventional combination of heating elements, in the present invention, the moxibustion treatment is combined with, for example, a poultice, etc., and the safety is high, and thereby a therapeutic effect exceeding the prediction is exerted. Is. In the present invention, electric moxibustion, which is a recent treatment method, can be used without any problem. The percutaneous absorption preparation used in the present invention is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include plasters, tapes, patches, creams, gels, ointments, liquids, and film-forming solutions other than the poultices described above. And so on. Of these, particularly preferred are poultices. Any drug can be used as long as it is percutaneously absorbed.

As the hot heat treatment, moxibustion treatment and electric moxibustion treatment are used. If we talk about moxibustion, the usual method,
In other words, the method of igniting by putting a limbs on a point on the skin may be used, but preferably the moxibustion treatment is carried out in a range as wide as possible (for example, a range close to the size of the patch) so that the absorption of the drug is good. However, as a matter of course, it is not possible to put the gusset on the same side as the patch, because it is too common to get burns, so it is best to put the gusset on several points within a certain range. good. For electric moxibustion,
As in the case of moxa, it is preferable to carry out not only in one place but in several places within a certain range. For this moxibustion treatment, a moxibustion treatment pedestal provided with one or more small holes is used. This moxibustion processing pedestal is shown in FIG. 1, and has a diameter of 25 m, for example.
The pedestal has a height of 1 to 3 mm and a height of 1 to 3 mm, and has, for example, a circular hole with a diameter of 4 mm provided in the center thereof. The size and height of this pedestal can be appropriately selected, and the number of holes can be appropriately selected as one or more. In the case of a pedestal having a circular hole with a diameter of 4 mm, it is preferable to use a mast with a diameter of 5 mm and a height of 9 mm. The administration of the transdermal preparation is most effective immediately after the heat treatment such as moxibustion treatment or electric moxibustion treatment, but the effect is sufficiently exerted if it is administered within 30 to 40 minutes after the treatment. If possible, the transdermal preparation may be administered before the heat treatment. For example,
In the case of poultices and plasters, after applying them to the skin, for example, moxibustion treatment may be performed thereon.

In the case of a patch or the like combining the conventional heating element as described above, the absorption is about doubled when the temperature is raised by about 10 ° C. compared with the usual case, but it is treated together with the heat treatment of the present invention. In this case, about 3 times as much absorption can be obtained as compared with the case where a normal patch is simply applied. Further, in the case of the present invention, the effect of, for example, a plasticizer can be further enhanced as compared with the case of simply administering a transdermal preparation. Further, when a heating element is used, the activation energy is simply increased.However, in the present invention, the transdermal absorption of the drug is promoted despite administration after the application site skin temperature completely returns to before moxibustion treatment. However, the therapeutic effect is improved. Furthermore, in the present invention, the effect is further enhanced by the heat treatment and the patch acting as auxiliary roles for each other.

(2) In vivo skin application experiment As shown in FIG. 4, rats were subjected to moxibustion treatment under urethane anesthesia (3 moxas, distance 1 mm), and after 30 minutes, the jugular vein was filled with sodium salicylate solution. The time of application was set to 0 hour, and blood was collected every hour thereafter. At the end of the experiment, the blood was decapitated and the abdominal skin and muscle were excised into a circle with a diameter of 2.5 cm. The blood concentration and the amount of drug in skin / muscle were measured using HPLC. As a control, the same operation as above was performed except that moxibustion treatment was not performed. The experimental results are shown in FIG. In this experiment, as is apparent from FIG. 5, the skin permeability of the drug was increased 7 to 8 times (ratio of plasma concentration) as compared with the control.

(3) Next, the concentration in the skin muscle of the application site was examined. The effect of moxibustion treatment in the case of intravenous injection or topical application is shown in FIG. As can be seen from FIG. 6, the intravenous injection after the moxibustion treatment showed a skin / plasma concentration ratio that was 2-3 times that of the control. From this, it is understood that the distribution of the drug from the systemic circulation system to the skin is increased by the moxibustion treatment as in the case of the skin penetration. On the other hand, in the case of topical application after moxibustion treatment, the skin / plasma concentration ratio was 2-3 times higher than that of the control as in the above.
In this case, the moxibustion treatment obtained a plasma concentration of 7 to 8 times as described above, and as a result, the amount in the skin increased to 20 times.

In the case of intravenous injection after moxibustion treatment, as shown in FIG. 7, the muscle / plasma concentration is twice as high as that of the control in terms of the amount in muscle. On the other hand, in the topical application, the muscle / plasma concentration ratio was 10 times that of the control. The increase in plasma concentration indicates that
This means that the amount in muscle has increased about 70 to 80 times.
