Aspects of the present disclosure relate to an article that includes a conformable backing having first and second opposed major surfaces. The conformable backing can be formed from a thermoplastic polymer selected from a group consisting of polyurethanes, polyesters, and combinations thereof. The conformable backing has a tensile strength of no greater than 60 grams per centimeter force at 25% elongation in a machine direction according to the Tensile and Elongation Test Method. A hydrophobic adhesive can be disposed on a portion of the first major surface of the conformable backing. The hydrophobic adhesive includes a cationic, bioactive agent, a hydrophobic solubilizer capable of solubilizing at least part of the bioactive agent, and a hydrophobic plasticizing agent having a weight average molecular weight of above 1500.
