Microneedle patches

Microneedle patches are a type of transdermal drug delivery system that uses an array of tiny needles to painlessly penetrate the outer layer of the skin. These patches create microchannels that allow for the direct delivery of drugs, vaccines, or other therapeutic agents into the dermal or subdermal layers, improving the efficacy and speed of drug delivery compared to traditional methods. They are particularly beneficial for patients who are needle-phobic, require self-administration, or need enhanced drug absorption.
