Iontophoretic delivery of metoclopramide (MCL) across dermatomed porcine ear skin was investigated in vitro as a function of concentration (10, 20, 40, 80 and 100mM) and current density (0.1, 0.2 and 0.3mAcm(-2)) using vertical flow-through diffusion cells. In vivo studies were performed in Wistar rats (40mM MCL, 0.3mAcm(-2), 5h); the anodal and drug formulation compartments were separated by a salt bridge. Cumulative delivery in vitro after 7h of current application (40mM MCL; 0.3mAcm(-2)) in the absence of electrolyte was 624.45+/-99.45microgcm(-2) (flux - 2.55+/-0.35microgcm(-2)min(-1)). There was a linear relationship between flux and both current density and drug concentration. Co-iontophoresis of acetaminophen confirmed that electromigration was the major transport mechanism (accounting for approximately 80% of MCL delivery). Electroosmotic inhibition, albeit modest, was only observed at the highest MCL concentration (100mM). Although the delivery rate observed in vivo in male Wistar rats (1.21+/-0.55microgcm(-2)min(-1)) was lower than that observed in vitro, the results suggest that drug input rates would be sufficient to achieve therapeutic levels in humans using non-invasive transdermal iontophoresis.
