“…Iontophoretic drug delivery is generally considered safe and noninvasive such as in transdermal and ocular iontophoresis. For example, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved iontophoresis treatments such as transdermal fentanyl (Ionsys in 2015, Medicines Co., Parsippany, NJ, USA) [ 35 , 36 ] and sumatriptan (Zecuity in 2013, NuPathe/Teva) [ 37 , 38 ], topical pilocarpine for sweat stimulation (e.g., Nanoduct and Macroduct) [ 39 , 40 ], topical lidocaine for local skin anesthesia (e.g., Iontocaine and Lidosite) [ 41 , 42 ], and transtympanic lidocaine for tympanic membrane anesthesia [ 43 , 44 ]. Reverse transdermal iontophoresis for glucose monitoring was also approved [ 45 ].…”
