PURPOSE: To provide a pharmaceutical preparation for topical application having prolonged action and useful for the mitigation or prevention of the spasm of muscles, by using a drug layer containing a pressure-sensitive adhesive substance and a nitrite-type vasodilator as essential components, and a flaxible substrate supporting said drug layer.
CONSTITUTION: The objective pharmaceutical preparation for topical application is prepared by applying a drug layer containing a nitrite-type vasodilator (e.g. nitroglycerine, glycol dinitrate, etc.) for the mitigation or prevention of the spasm of muscles and a pressure-sensitive adhesive substance, to a flexible substrate. The thickness of the drug layer is about 10W300μm. The pressure- sensitive adhesive substance is, e.g. an acrylic resin composition, a rubber composition, etc. The vasodilator acts to the diseased part continuously for ≥10hr and the spasm can be effectively prevented by applying the pharmaceutical preparation to the part (e.g. the muscle of the leg) where the spasm is expected.
