Abstract

Near-infrared light-controlled transdermal drug delivery (NIRTDD) has several advantages over traditional delivery methods, and it is now undergoing extensive research. One prominent aspect of NIRTDD is the possibility of keeping the drug concentration in its optimal therapeutic window using a suitable near-infrared light protocol. The problem is that this ideal protocol is usually unknown. In this paper, we propose a computational tool that aims at solving this issue. The computational tool relies on an optimization problem involving the numerical simulation of a two-dimensional mathematical model for NIRTDD. We also analyze the convergence and stability of a finite difference spatial scheme for a generalized version of this mathematical model.
