METHOD OF OBTAINING A PERCUTANEOUS THERAPEUTIC SYSTEM CONTAINING BUPERNOPHYNE AS AN ACTIVE SUBSTANCE

摘要

The controlled delivery of buprenorphine or its pharmaceutically compatible salts over at least 24 hours onto the skin is ensured by a transdermal therapeutic system composed of a backing layer which is impermeable to active substance, of an adhesive reservoir layer and, where appropriate, of a protective layer which can be detached again, which system is characterised in that the reservoir layer contains 20-90% by weight of polymeric material, 0.1-30% by weight of plasticiser, 0.1-20% of buprenorphine base or of one of its pharmaceutically acceptable salts and 0.1-30% by weight of solvent for the active substance base.
