Transdermal Delivery of Pain Management Drugs Increasing

Follow us on Twitter

(Nashua, NH) - As life expectancy in the developed world increases and populations age, the incidence and associated morbidity of chronic and acute pain is increasing and placing a higher level of emphasis on pain management as a quality-of-life issue for patients and their families. Because it has the potential to improve drug therapy compliance, transdermal delivery addresses a key healthcare issue – one that is particularly problematic in aging populations and developing economies.

The past twelve months have illustrated that the transdermal segment has some work to do before it can achieve the commercial stature that has so far eluded it. Recent problems related to patch manufacturing quality have resulted in costly product recalls and interrupted the market momentum of promising patch products.

Several of the emerging drug products covered in this report have the potential to improve patient quality of life and in the process help transform transdermal therapeutics from a novelty to a mainstream healthcare technology. For transdermal drug developers and their supply chain partners, understanding the concerns, preferences, and limitations of targeted patient groups to self-medicate via traditional pain medication methods will be an important factor in successfully addressing this market segment.

Detailed analysis of transdermal pain management products, API’s, indications and participants is included in a comprehensive report. The report documents and analyzes the results of a recent survey of the pain drug delivery sector conducted by Applied Data Research.
