Abstract
A transdermal drug delivery system with a dual permeation enhancer is described. The transdermal system comprises a body that contains supplies of drug and a dual permeation enhancer comprising sucrose cocoate and methyl laurate, and has a basal surface that contacts an area of skin and transmits the drug and the dual permeation enhancer to the area for absorption thereby. A method for coadministering a drug and a dual permeation enhancer comprising sucrose cocoate and methyl laurate is also described.
