Transdermal drug delivery method suggests a lucrative alternative the traditional drug delivery method of injections as well as oral administration. Nevertheless, the outermost layer of the skin serves as an obstacle that controls the penetration of the macromolecular substances into the skin.
Application of Ultrasound irradiation on to the skin increases the permeability of macromolecules, and this enables the delivery of different substances into the skin and also through the skin. The use of ultrasound irradiation to deliver drugs through the skin is called as sonophoresis or phonophoresis. Ultrasound transdermal drug delivery system improves the current ways of drug deliveries such as regional, systemic and local drug delivery.
High-frequency sonophoresis use dates back to 1950s, and Low-Frequency Sonophoresis is checked during the last two decades. Furthermore, the high-frequency sonophoresis and low-frequency sonophoresis are similar as the both use ultrasound to enhance the penetration of drugs and macromolecules into the skin, though the mechanisms associated with each of the frequencies are different.
Also, the site of cavitation and the degree to which each procedure can increase the skin penetration are quite different.
The most significant driver for the rapid development of the global Ultrasound Transdermal Drug Delivery market is the rising awareness of non-invasive drug delivery methods enhancing the Ultrasound Transdermal Drug Delivery market ahead. Also, the Ultrasound Transdermal Drug Delivery method is preferred more in situations which require medications to be injected many times either daily or weekly.
