Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Transdermal Drug Delivery (TDD) TDD is a painless method of delivering drugs systemically by applying a drug formulation onto intact and healthy skin [2, 5].

Detailed explanation-2: -A transdermal patch acts as a carrier for a drug, holding it until it’s applied. At the point of application, the patch’s adhesive secures it to the skin, and the drugs contained in the patch will begin to permeate into the bloodstream.
