ABSTRACT:
A transdermal drug applicator (100) for application to a living body for the delivery of at least one drug through the skin (144) into the bloodstream comprising an applicator (100) including at least one drug reservoir (182A,182B) containing the drug for delivering same through the skin (144) by physico/chemical mass transfer. A mounting structure (138, 140) is removably mounted to the body for holding the applicator (100) to the skin (144), with the applicator (100) removably connected to the mounting structure (138,140). A power supply (166) for the applicator (100) and a circuit transmitting electrical power from the power supply (166) to the applicator (100) is disclosed, wherein an electric circuit is created between the applicator (100) and the skin (144). The device includes a computer (158) with the mounting structure (138,140) for receiving programmed instructions relative to the drug, and transmitting signals relative to the drug and the programmed instructions to the power supply (166) for regulating the generation of power and delivery of drug through the skin (144).
