This study was designed to clarify the percutaneous penetration of bupranolol (BP), a β-adrenoceptor antagonist, through rabbit skin and to compare the in vitro penetration with the in vivo absorption. BP penetrated across the skin slowly in the absence of enhancers in vitro. Isopropyl myristate and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone enhanced the in vitro penetration, with a 3.6 times higher flux compared with that without enhancers. However, in the in vivo percutaneous absorption, the maximal penetration was obtained with the formulation added d-limonene, with a 3.0 times higher area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) than that for the formulation without enhancers. The plasma levels of BP determined, however, were extremely lower than the theoretical plasma steady-state concentrations predicted. The plasma levels of BP after application of these formulations were maintained in the range of 7—22 ng/ml for 30 h, of which concentrations were above the therapeutically effective concentration (1.5—4 ng/ml). Therefore, the transdermal systems will offer an efficient drug delivery system for the treatment of angina pectoris and tachycardia.
