Iontophoresis - Wikipedia
WEBIontophoresis. ICD-9-CM. 99.27. MedlinePlus. 007293. [ edit on Wikidata] Iontophoresis is a process of transdermal drug delivery by use of a voltage gradient on the skin. [1] [2] Molecules are transported across the stratum corneum by electrophoresis and electroosmosis and the electric field can also increase the permeability of the skin.
