 Physical Therapy/ Vol 79 No 1/ Ketoprofen Tissue Permeation in Swine Following Cathodic Iontophoresis
To determine the value of ketoprofen for clinical iontophoresis, further experimental or clinical investigations would be required to document a cause-and-effect relationship between drug concentrations within the tissue and their anti-inflammatory effect on soft tissue injury.
The ketoprofen levels measured in the skin, fascia, and muscle may represent ketoprofen that was absorbed into the systemic circulation and redistributed back to the tissue underlying the iontophoretic or passive application sites.
In contrast, multivariate analysis demonstrated that the ketoprofen concentration in the first centimeter of muscle following iontophoresis was greater than the drug concentration in the deeper underlying muscle layers and greater than that delivered to any muscle layer following passive delivery.
