Abstract: | Some of the factors affecting the steady-state transport rate of diclofenac sodium across excised guinea-pig skin during high-frequency pulse iontophoresis were examined. The same mathematical expression was employed for enhancement ratio as a function of applied voltage as the one derived for direct-current iontophoresis. The effective voltage drop across the skin was only 1.1% of the applied voltage. The steady-state flux value increased with increase of the donor concentration. |
