Abstract

Diabetes is turning into a chronicle disease with further improved drugs and more facilitated delivery systems coming out. An essential part of the drugs is insulin and its analogs that patients with diabetes use to control their blood glucose levels. The conventional treatments, like injection and open-loop (release are not responsive) transdermal delivery, are short of maintaining glucose levels in the expected range incurring risks of hypoglycemia. Nevertheless, closed-loop drug delivery shows high potential as its release response to glucose levels dynamically. In the transdermal delivery field, microneedle (MN)-array patch systems presented great capability in transdermal delivery and manipulation. So, the glucose-responsive MN-array patches that make progress in safety and convenience were drawing worldwide focus. This review provides an overview of the topic and presents some advanced outcomes.
