  • In general good physical health including the presence of healthy and non irritated skin at test site behind the participant's ears, as judged by the investigator and determined by medical/surgical history, physical examination, electrocardiogram (ECG) (12-lead), and clinical laboratory (clinical chemistry, hematology and urinalysis).
  • Ability to communicate and comply with all study requirements.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
In this comparative bioavailability and in vivo skin adhesion study, the impact of minor changes in qualitative composition of polyiso-Butylenes (PIB) from a different supplier and change of the manufacturing line of the micro porous membrane will be tested.
Detailed Description
This study is a randomized, single-center, cross-over, comparative bioavailability and adhesion study, comparing single administrations of a new scopolamine transdermal delivery system formulation to the current established reference transdermal delivery system in healthy adult participants. The study will consist of an ambulant screening day within 21 days prior to the first investigational medicinal product (IMP) administration at study Day 1 and two treatment periods. Each treatment period will consist of 4.5 days (108 hours) of in-house confinement.
