Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to an iontophoresis current control device using a smart mobile device, and more particularly, through wired and wireless communication using a smart mobile device such as a smart phone widely used in general. By using the installed and installed application through the current generator connected to the mask or patch attached to the skin properly configured to control the strength and application time of the microcurrent provided to the mask or patch using a conventional expensive expensive special stop and programming device If you only purchase low-cost current generator and mask or patch and application, you can easily and cheaply and efficiently control current through your smart mobile device, especially between the current generator connected to patch and smart mobile device. Smart mobile devices that can be spatially separated by using short-range communication devices such as chips, can be controlled more conveniently using smart mobile devices, and can be worn without objection by minimizing current generation. It relates to a current control device of the iontophoresis using.
In general, the transdermal drug delivery system, which is a technique for effectively delivering drugs through the skin, can maintain a constant blood concentration and can minimize the side effects of the drug because it can avoid toxicities in the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, since the drug is absorbed directly into the systemic circulation system through the skin, it is possible to reduce the burden on the liver by avoiding the phenomenon (first pass effect) that the drug that is generated in the liver is transported to the liver through the blood stream, It is possible to increase the bioavailability and consequently to reduce the dosage. Because the site of administration is located on the outer surface of the patient, it is possible to easily stop the administration according to the patient's condition, and the size and the volume of the preparation can be variously varied There is a characteristic that adjustment of medicament can be performed relatively simply. Therefore, it is suitable for long-term administration because it is easy to use and because the patient's compliance with drug use is large.
The first commercially available transdermally absorbable preparation was Transderm-Scop, which was released in 1981 at Ciba. It was used to treat scopolamine, which inhibits motion sickness, which causes dizziness and vomiting. It is an agent that can be released for 72 hours. Since then, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has licensed dozens of patches (about 20%) and about 20 commercial products have been developed as percutaneous absorption products. In 2001, And it is expected to make great progress in the future.
However, despite the advantages of the transdermal drug delivery method, it is not widely used for the treatment of various diseases because the skin acts as a skin barrier preventing foreign substances from entering from outside or evaporation of water from the body, This is because the permeability of the substance is much lower than that of the biomembrane, so that it is possible only when the effective blood concentration is low. Many studies have focused on development as a way to promote transdermal absorption of drugs.
This method of promoting transdermal absorption refers to a method of directly changing the permeability by directly affecting the absorption barrier of the skin without causing irritation or damage to the skin. The chemical approach, which can be classified by physical, chemical and biochemical methods, Is a method of administering various skin permeation enhancers simultaneously with a drug. Physical methods include iontophoresis, electroporasis, microneedle, sonophoresis, stripping of stratum corneum, hydration of stratum corneum, There is a method of supplying heat energy. Biochemical approaches include the simultaneous administration of skin metabolism inhibitors that prevent the metabolism of drugs and drugs that are converted into active forms after degradation or metabolism, .
Among them, Iontophoresis, a physical method of permeation enhancement, is a method of applying a small amount of physiologically acceptable current to the skin, thereby causing percutaneous absorption of charged drugs and neutral drugs by electrical repulsive force and electroosmotic action Depending on the type of drug, the drug can be delivered 5 to 50 times more than the simple diffusion method like the patch agent. Therefore, the dosage can be easily adjusted by adjusting the current intensity and the current application time by a simple patch, and it is very convenient that the patient can easily turn on / off the administration of the drug without the help of specialized medical manpower. That is, the principle of iontophoresis is based on the principle that a molecule occupying a positive charge in an electric field generated between a positive electrode and a negative electrode by energization flows out of the positive electrode to a negative electrode and a negative electrode moves from the negative electrode to the positive electrode Thereby promoting skin barrier permeation of drug molecules. Common forms of iontophoresis include a power supply, a chemical reservoir electrode, and an electrolyte reservoir electrode. The electrodes include active electrodes represented by silver or silver chloride and inert electrodes such as carbon, platinum and titanium. Hydrogen ions and oxygen gas are generated on the anode side and hydrogen ions and hydrogen gas are generated on the cathode side as shown in the following reaction formula. It is known that hydrogen ions or hydroxyl ions produced by these inactive electrodes cause skin irritation or lower the yield of the medicament.
Anode side: 2H 2 O 4H + O 2 4e-
Cathode side: 2H 2 O 2e- 20H_ H 2
