Business Development ManagerMedherant
Medherant develops patches for transdermal drug delivery using our proprietary TEPI-Patch® technology. Key advantages of the TEPI Patch® technology over current technologies include excellent adhesion that can be tailored for up to 7-days of drug delivery, whilst still being easy and painless to remove.
The TEPI Patch® provides a better experience for the user as it does not leave a residue or dirty mark around the patch – referred to as ‘cold flow’. No organic solvents are involved in manufacture of this drug-in-adhesive system.
As well as developing our own products, some of which have already been successfully tested in clinical studies, Medherant is working with pharmaceutical companies to develop new products. We are seeking additional partners and can offer rapid feasibility studies using our proprietary high throughput permeation study system to develop transdermal formulations of drugs of interest.
