Iontophoresis
Non-invasive drug delivery directly to the treatment site
Iontophoresis is a non-invasive method of delivering drugs into the body. With a low-level electrical current, iontophoresis repels drug ions through the skin and into underlying tissue.
The use of iontophoresis for transdermal drug delivery has been successfully used by medical professionals for decades and continues to increase dramatically because of its advantages.
