Abstract

See full text

The extraction and use of residual opioids from transdermal dosage forms can be reduced by placement and fixation of used dosage forms onto a surface. The used dosage form can be fixed to the surface such that it cannot be removed without at least partially destroying the matrix containing the opioid, or such that the matrix containing the opioid is rendered at least partially inaccessible to opioid extraction methods. The disposal system for one or more opioid-containing transdermal delivery forms comprises at least one disposal surface for receiving the transdermal delivery form. The at least one disposal surface can comprise one or more structures for fixing a transdermal delivery form to the at least one surface. Alternatively, the transdermal delivery form comprises one or more structures for permanently fixing the transdermal delivery form to the surface. The disposal system can also be used for preventing or reducing diversion of opioids from transdermal delivery forms.
