A new transdermal nicotine delivery system (TBS-NCT)was investigated in laboratory and clinical studies with healthy cigarette smokers. Plasma nicotine concentration time profiles were characterized during and after 24-hr application of three doses of TBS-NCT and during and after a 6-hr regimen of nicotine polacrilex gum. Pharmacokinetic analysis revealed dose-related plasma concentrations for transdermal treatments, bracketing the concentrations obtained from nicotine gum. The TBS-NCT system was also well tolerated during a subsequent 4-week open trial and demonstrated a 40% success rate for smoking cessation during the course of the trial. Overall, the TBS-NCT system appears suitable for once-daily application as an aid in smoking cessation treatments. © 1993 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
