Brief summary

The purose of this study is to understand how well oxycodone in combination with tocopheryl phosphate mix (TPM), is absorbed through the skin and into the bloodstream, with the use of a patch.

Interventions

Single centre, open-label, single application study in a total of 12 healthy participants. Eligible participants will receive a single 3 day application of a transdermal patch containing 72 mg of oxycodone in combination with TPM (tocopheryl phosphate mix) with a subsequent 3 day in-house period (this period is used to ensure washout of the oxycodone to a safe level prior to discharge).
