IMPLEMENT FOR APPLYING A VOLUME OF LIQUID TO A TREATED SURFACE, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TRANSDERMAL ADMINISTRATION OF A PHYSIOLOGICAL ACTIVE AGENT INTO A SUBJECT

摘要

This invention relates to an implement (1) for applying a volume of liquid to a treatment surface. The implement includes a support means (3) onto which is mounted a receptacle (2), the receptacle defining a reservoir space (4) which receives the liquid. The receptacle includes a wall (6) having a working surface that is used to spread the liquid over the treatment surface. The wall (6) is resiliently deformable so in use the working surface maintains contact with the treatment surface when spreading the liquid. The implement has a specific application in applying a transdermal lotion to the axilla area of the user. The invention also relates to a system for transdermal administration of a physiological active agent from a liquid composition and a method of conducting the same.
