US 10,881,622 B2 · Smart transdermal microdispensing system for integrated weight management

Abstract

Technologies are described for delivery of compounds to aid in weight management. A transdermal microdispenser based system may deliver weight management compounds through the time and dose specific administration of appetite suppression, metabolic enhancers, and satiation compounds. The transdermal delivery system may be controlled based on data associated with subject such as calorie intake, physical activity, satiation, and hunger. The system may be integrated with medical monitoring or fitness tracking systems. Delivery of the compounds may be distributed over the course of a day at selected or adjusted doses to be safe and effective for their specific modality. For example, appetite suppressants may be delivered during periods of the day when cravings occur, satiation compounds may be delivered to coincide with meals, and metabolic stimulators may be delivered at times to optimally increase metabolism based on caloric balance. Control factors may also be predictive to prevent the onset of hunger.
