Abstract
Transdermal drug delivery (TDD) using electrically assisted microneedle (MN) systems has emerged as a promising alternative to traditional drug administration routes. This review explores recent advancements in this technology across various therapeutic applications. Integrating iontophoresis (IP) and electroporation (EP) with MN technology has shown significant potential in improving treatment outcomes for various conditions. Studies demonstrate their effectiveness in enhancing vaccine and DNA delivery, improving diabetes management, and increasing efficacy in dermatological applications. The technology has also exhibited promise in delivering nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), treating multiple sclerosis, and advancing obesity and cancer therapy. These systems offer improved drug permeation, targeted delivery, and enhanced therapeutic effects. While challenges remain, including safety concerns and technological limitations, ongoing research focuses on optimizing these systems for broader clinical applications. The future of electrically assisted MN technologies in TDD appears promising, with potential advancements in personalized medicine, smart monitoring systems, and expanded therapeutic applications.
