EXERCISE AND TRANSDERMAL PATCH DRUG DELIVERY INTERACTIONS

Raman Kumar*, Jyoti Gupta and Hans Raj Chauhan

ABSTRACT

Drug administration by transdermal drug delivery systems, such as the transdermal patch, is still a common and practical practise. Currently, a number of pharmaceuticals administer their drugs via transdermal patches. The adverse effects of enhanced medication absorption from transdermal patches when applied to people who exercise or take part in sporting activities are discussed in this article. There have been four studies that show a significant rise in the plasma level of nitroglycerin. when people work out versus when they are at rest. In addition, a number of case reports and two studies have shown that individuals who exercise or take part in sporting events had higher plasma nicotine levels while wearing a nicotine patch than those who do not. Healthcare professionals, athletes, and coaches should understand how to apply transdermal patches correctly. especially while exercising, in order to give their patients and athletes the knowledge they need to prevent any potential negative side effects. People who take part in long-lasting intense sporting events should use extra vigilance. It is necessary to conduct additional study in this area using more drugs.
