Throughout the past 2 decades, the transdermal patch has become a proven technology that offers a variety of significant clinical benefits over other dosage forms. Because transdermal drug delivery offers controlled release of the drug into the patient, it enables a steady blood-level profile, resulting in reduced systemic side effects and, in many cases, improved efficacy over other dosage forms.

In addition, because transdermal patches are user-friendly, convenient, painless, and offer multi-day dosing, it is generally accepted that they offer improved patient compliance.

Although transdermal drug delivery patches have a relatively short regulatory history compared to other, more traditional dosage forms, the technology has a proven record of FDA approval. Since the first transdermal patch was approved in 1981 to prevent the nausea and vomiting associated with motion sickness, the FDA has approved, throughout the past 22 years, more than 350 transdermal patch products, spanning 130 molecules.

How Do Penis Patches Work?

Although penis enlargement patches are new on the market, they quickly gain popularity because of their convenience in use. When patch products enter the field of penis enlargement, they benefit from years of research and the latest up-to-the-minute know-how on transdermal pharmaceutical delivery.

The penis enlargement patches release their active ingredients directly through the skin into the bloodstream in a sustained, gradual way over many hours. Because the ingredients don�t have to travel through the stomach, potency is much more predictable and efficient.

Unlike penis enlargement pills, which often have to be taken at frequent intervals (most penis pills require a dosage of 2-3 pills a day), a penis enlargement patch is a simple one-time application with full strength that lasts for 3 days.

Although there is a difference between penis enlargement patches and penis enlargement pills in delivery method, they both work in the same way at helping you enlarge your penis, i.e. by forcing more blood flow into your penis.
