Abstract
Dissolving microarray patches (DMAP) contain micron-scale projections and are usually made from biocompatible water-soluble polymers containing a high amount of drug in their tips, to be delivered through the skin layers. The challenge regarding DMAP is the detachment of the tips from the baseplate. & nbsp; This impacts the wearing time, the delivery efficiency of the skin, and patient compliance. In our previous work, we reported the delivery of cabotegravir sodium (CAB Na), an anti-HIV drug, necessitting the wearing time of more than 1 hour [1].Herein we developed strategies to reduce the wearing time of DMAP containing cabotegravir sodium from hours to 10 minutes by facilitating tip detachment from the baseplate.
