A procaterol-containing plaster comprising a medicated layer provided on a support material, wherein the medicated layer contains procaterol or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof in an amount of 0.1 to 5 wt. % based on a substantially water-free sticky gel base comprising polyacrylic acid, a cross-linking agent, and at least one lower or polyhydric alcohol as the essential ingredients. This plaster is useful since it allows procaterol or its salt to be percutaneously absorbed stably for long. |
