Evaluation of Adhesion Quality and Irritation of an Alternate Second Generation Estradiol Transdermal System

March 31, 2008 updated by: Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc

Evaluation of the Adhesion Quality and Primary Dermal Irritation Potential of an Alternate Second Generation Estradiol Transdermal Systems in Normal Healthy Female Volunteers

The primary objective of this study was to compare the adhesive quality of the current Mylan estradiol placebo transdermal system, with that of an alternate second generation Mylan estradiol placebo transdermal system following a single system application. As a secondary objective, primary dermal irritation was assessed after removal of each transdermal system.
