FDA has cleared a Soterix Medical 510(k) for its IontoDC device, which uses a direct current to introduce ions of soluble salts or other drugs into the body. “Iontophoresis is used for hyperhidrosis treatment, delivery of local anesthetic before emergent skin puncture or dermatological procedure to reduce pain, administration of fentanyl for patient-controlled analgesia for acute pain, sweat test for the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis, etc.,” according to the company. The device provides 10, 20, 30, or 40 minutes of direct current with an intensity of 1, 1.5, 1.75, or 2 mA. It also includes current and resistance meters, automatic ramp up and down, and comes with an anode and cathode cable.
