1 delivers 17beta-estradiol through a rate-limiting membrane continuously upon application to intact skin. Two systems provide delivery of 0.05 or 0.1 mg estradiol per day.	1 Estraderm TDDS
1 indicated for the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause, female hypogonadism, female castration , primary ovarian failure, and atrophic conditions caused by deficient endogenous estrogen production, such as atrophic vaginitis and kraurosis value.	1 Estradiol
1 Transdermal administration produces therapeutic serum levels of estradiol with lower circulating levels of __ than does oral therapy and requires a smaller total dose. 2 The systemic side effects from oral estrogens can be reduced by using the __	1 estrone and estrone conjugates 2 transdermal dosage forms
1 are available with various delivery rates as hormone replacement therapy in men who have an absence or deficiency of testosterone. Optimum serum levels are reached within 2 to 4 hours after application. The patch is worn 22 to 24 hours daily for 6 to 8 weeks.	1 Testosterone transdermal systems
1 Testosterone transdermal systems examples 2 Transdermal testosterone application	1 Testoderm (Alza), Androderm (SmithKline Beecham) 2 applied daily, usually in the morning to mimic endogenous testosterone release.

a dosage form that is suitable for delivering drugs to the skin. It consists of a drug that is impregnated into a flexible, durable woven fabric or extruded synthetic material that is coated with an adhesive agent. not designed to control the release rate of the drug-like transdermal patches drug content is expressed as an amount per surface area with respect to the tape surface exposed to the skin. use of an occlusive dressing over the tape enhances the rate and extent of delivery of the drug to deeper layers of the skin and may result in greater systemic absorption of the drug. a portion of the tape slightly larger than the area to be treated is cut and removed from the backing paper.
