How Transdermal Medication Works:
The skin acts as a barrier, but certain herbal medications can be formulated through special methods to penetrate the skin's outer layers (epidermis) and reach the bloodstream. This process is called transdermal absorption. The herbal medication can enter the blood vessels under the skin (in the dermis), and from there, it circulates throughout the body.Most transdermal herbal medications are delivered via specially prepared herbal medications.
