20210059860 · 2021-03-04 ·

Carefully coordinated patches having camouflaging and/or benefit properties can be formed for application to a desired region of human skin. The patches include a flexible film having a first, adhesive, outwardly facing major surface and a second outwardly facing surface which is textured to correspond to skin covered by the patch during use; wherein the flexible film further comprises at least one pigmented region and at least one region adapted to modify one or more optical properties selected from the group consisting of light transmission, light reflection, and light absorption. Methods of custom use of such patches may include 3D printing processes.

Memantine transdermal delivery systems

Transdermal delivery systems for the systemic delivery of memantine are described, wherein the system comprises a drug reservoir layer and an adhesive layer, optionally together with one or more intermediate and/or supporting layers, wherein the drug reservoir layer comprises an acrylate polymer or copolymer, a permeation enhancer, a carrier, and memantine base generated in situ by reaction of a memantine salt and an alkaline salt. Compositions and kits comprising the various components, e.g., drug reservoir and/or adhesive compositions are described. Methods relating to treatment of CNS disorders, e.g., Alzheimer's disease and/or dementia, using the aforementioned transdermal delivery devices and/or compositions are also described.

Microcell systems for delivering active molecules
10933029 · 2021-03-02 · ·

An active molecule delivery system whereby active molecules can be released on demand and/or a variety of different active molecules can be delivered from the same system and/or different concentrations of active molecules can be delivered from the same system. The active delivery system includes a plurality of microcells, wherein the microcells are filled with a medium including active molecules. The microcells include an opening, and the opening is spanned by a porous diffusion layer. The microcell arrays may be loaded with different active ingredients, thereby providing a mechanism to deliver different, or complimentary, active ingredients on demand.

System and Method for Controlling the Humidity and Pressure in a Luminaire
20230414531 · 2023-12-28 ·

A luminaire is provided, having an enclosure and a chamber air coupled to the enclosure. The enclosure includes luminaire components that emit a light beam, has an opening, and is otherwise sealed. The chamber includes a drying agent, two openings, and is otherwise sealed from the external air. One opening of the chamber is coupled by a sealed air coupling to the opening of the enclosure. The other opening of the chamber is completely covered by a membrane that allows air to pass through the material while reducing the passage of water droplets in the air. The enclosure may include sensors that measure air pressure, air humidity, and/or air temperature of the enclosure. The luminaire may include a control system configured to collect data from the sensors and to send information related to the collected data to a user of the luminaire via a communication channel.

SODIUM BICARBONATE IN SITU CONVERSION DRIVEN TRANSDERMAL DELIVERY OF AMINE DRUG
20210015761 · 2021-01-21 ·

Compositions, devices, and methods for transdermal administration of active agents provided in their salt form instead of neutral form are provided.

ABUSE RESISTANT TRANSMUCOSAL DRUG DELIVERY DEVICE

The present invention relates to a solid pharmaceutical dosage form for abusable drug delivery with reduced illicit abuse potential. The dosage form is presented as a bioerodable transmucosal delivery device that includes an abusable drug and an antagonist to the abusable drug associated with an abuse-resistant matrix. The devices of the invention may be in the form of a layered film or a tablet. Upon application in a non-abusive manner, the device adheres to the mucosal surface, providing transmucosal drug delivery of the drug with minimal absorption of the antagonist into systemic circulation.

Smart transdermal microdispensing system for integrated weight management
10881622 · 2021-01-05 · ·

Technologies are described for delivery of compounds to aid in weight management. A transdermal microdispenser based system may deliver weight management compounds through the time and dose specific administration of appetite suppression, metabolic enhancers, and satiation compounds. The transdermal delivery system may be controlled based on data associated with subject such as calorie intake, physical activity, satiation, and hunger. The system may be integrated with medical monitoring or fitness tracking systems. Delivery of the compounds may be distributed over the course of a day at selected or adjusted doses to be safe and effective for their specific modality. For example, appetite suppressants may be delivered during periods of the day when cravings occur, satiation compounds may be delivered to coincide with meals, and metabolic stimulators may be delivered at times to optimally increase metabolism based on caloric balance. Control factors may also be predictive to prevent the onset of hunger.
