Amorphization of Drugs for Transdermal Delivery-a Recent Update.

Amorphous solid dispersion is a popular formulation approach for orally administered poorly water-soluble drugs, especially for BCS class II.

In such cases, transdermal delivery is considered an alternative if the drug is potent and the dose is less than 10 mg.
