Among the many drug delivery systems, transdermal patch can maintain stable and effective plasma concentration and therapeutic effect in vivo for a long time after skin dressing delivery, which provides a safe and effective drug-delivery way for the therapy and prevention of some chronic diseases and partial analgesia in a simple and convenient way. Veterinary drug transdermal preparations have been developed both at home and abroad, and satisfactory results have been achieved in the experimental application. Based on the study of veterinary transdermal patches at home and abroad, this paper systematically describes the development and characteristics of transdermal patches, the factors affecting skin permeation and the evaluation this type of preparations in veterinary drugs.展开更多
