What is Transdermal Metformin Gel Innovation about?

This document summarizes a transdermal metformin gel invention that delivers the diabetes drug metformin through the skin, bypassing the digestive system and its side effects. The gel joins metformin with PLO, allowing transmission into the skin. Initial human studies show encouraging results. Larger trials are planned before FDA approval. Licensing opportunities exist for the provisional patent filed in 2009 to develop this alternative delivery method for patients unable to take oral metformin.
