The pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of triprolidine, antihistamines, were studied to determine the feasibility of enhanced transdemal delivery of triprolidine from the poly(4-methyl-1-pentene) (TPX) matrix system containing polyoxyethylene-2-oleyl ether in rabbits. The triprolidine-TPX matrix (50 mg/kg) was applied to abdominal skin
