CA 2146021

An iontophoresis system includes an iontophoretic drug delivery device (2) for placement against the skin (10) of a patient and having a pair of electrodes (6, 8), and a circuit (4) for delivering and controlling the current and voltage provided to the elec- trodes. The current and voltage controlling circuit (4) includes a power supply (20) for generating a voltage or current, an interme- diary storage device (22) and a first switching circuit (24) interposed and coupled to the power supply and the intermediary sto- rage device. The intermediary storage device is selectively coupled to the drug delivery device through a second switching circuit or device (28). Energy from the power supply is transferred and store in the intermediary storage device for later delivery to the transdermal drug delivery device. In this way, should a component of the circuit fail, the energy or power delivered to the drug delivery device is interrupted or maintained at least equal to a predetermined safe level to avoid damage or injury to the patient's skin.
