The present application discloses chemical compositions and methods for enhancing the transdermal permeation of therapeutic agents through skin. The chemical compositions and methods of the invention can include combinations of a first fatty acid having about 14 or more carbon atoms and a second fatty acid having about 10 or less carbon atoms. These compositions are useful for the delivery of therapeutic agents, in particular hard to deliver drugs such as those that have fused rings, including ondansetron, and large drugs such as peptides.
