For people who demand a healthier, more comfortable lifestyle... Nitto Denko provides a variety of adhesive tapes for the medical and sports fields. A diverse range of products have been developed to offer not only air-permeability and elasticity, but also firm adhesion, ease of use, and a comfortable fit. Furthermore, advanced adhesive technology has given rise to a revolutionary product, transdermal drug delivery patches. Medicines in patch form, unlike those taken internally, impose no burden on the digestive system or liver, and are absorbed gradually through the skin. Because they diffuse throughout the entire body via the capillaries, side-effects are also reduced. These products also offer the benefits of avoiding the pain associated with injections, and helping to alleviate patients' unease. Accordingly, these patch medications are the subject of considerable expectations as products that will change the concept of "medicines". |
