An effective therapy for pain depends on the intensity and type of pain, the patients’ age, comorbidities, and appropriate choice of analgesic, its dose and route of administration. This review is aimed at presenting current knowledge on analgesics administered by transdermal and topical routes for physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and other health care professionals dealing with patients suffering from pain. Analgesics administered transdermally or topically act through different mechanisms. Opioids administered transdermally are absorbed into vessels located in subcutaneous tissue and, subsequently, are conveyed in the blood to opioid receptors localized in the central and peripheral nervous system. Non–steroidal anti–inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) applied topically render analgesia mainly through a high concentration in the structures of the joint and a provision of local anti–inflammatory effects.

Topical medications come in many forms – ointments, lotions, pastes, creams, powders, sprays, and shampoos. NOTE: 1) The RN or LPN is permitted to delegate ONLY after application of all components of the NCBON Decision Tree for Delegation to UAP and after careful consideration that delegation is appropriate: a) for this client, b) with this acuity level, c) with this individual UAP’s knowledge and experience, and d) now (or in the time period being planned). 2) Successful completion of the “Infection Control” module by the UAP should be documented prior to instruction in medication administration by this or ANY route. D DEFINITIONS Ointments are semi-solid preparations of drugs in an oil base. Lotions are medications dissolved in a liquid. Pastes are a mixture of powders and ointment and are often very stiff and sticky. Creams are medications in a suspension of oil and water and are easily applied to the skin. Powders are very finely ground medications that are usually sprinkled onto the affected area. Sprays are medications in a solution that can be atomized into a mist for ease of application. Shampoos are medications in a soap solution made for application to the scalp and hair.
