Drug delivery systems for the transdermal administration of tamsulosin are described. The systems are in the form of laminated patches having one or more reservoirs comprised of a polymeric adhesive material containing a tamsulosin formulation. The invention also relates to a method for treating benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) and related conditions and diseases, by administering tamsulosin transdermally, to tamsulosin-containing pharmaceutical compositions for transdermal administration of the drug and to a low-temperature method for manufacturing a tamsulosin-containing transdermal delivery system. |
