Skin Patch Delivery of Exelon

by @ 10:57 am.  Filed under Pharma News

I’ve posted about Exelon several times before but today comes news that it may be available in a patch the would be absorbed through the skin.

Alzheimer’s patients may get skin patch - Yahoo! News:

I should note that this has not yet been approved but will likely be considered by the FDA before the end of this year. This would be very beneficial for patient compliance since some elderly have trouble swallowing pills. Also, as I have stated before Exelon is not a cure, it just slows the progression of the disease.
