Abstract
A transdermal drug delivery device includes a cassette and a lid that is attachable to the cassette. The cassette includes a first reservoir for containing a drug and microneedles. At least one of the microneedles is in fluid communication with the first reservoir. The lid includes a power source and an electronic device configured to receive electrical energy generated from the power source. The drug delivery device also includes a logic device configured to selectively control delivery of the electrical energy to the electronic device, whereby delivery of the electrical energy causes the electronic device to deliver the drug contained in the first reservoir.
