ionoterapiaa
Ionoterapia, also known as ionophoresis or iontophoresis, is a non-invasive therapeutic technique that utilizes a low-level electrical current to deliver charged drug molecules through the skin. This method is employed to enhance the transdermal absorption of various medications, facilitating their localized or systemic delivery. The electrical current, typically direct current, is applied via electrodes placed on the skin, one carrying a positive charge and the other a negative charge. The drug solution is placed on one of these electrodes, and the charged drug ions are repelled into the underlying tissues by the electric field.
The principle behind ionoterapia is electrorepulsion. Positively charged ions (cations) are delivered by the anode (positive
