Abstract
We document evidence that the major rate-limiting step in iontophoretic drug delivery of low molecular weight charged solutes can be dermal perfusion at the site of application; for high molecular weight solutes, on the other hand, transport to the site of microcirculation uptake may, in some circumstances, become the slowest step.
