The Big Finalé

Bloggers, time has come to delve into our own opinions and really enlighten you on whether iontophoresis is a suitable option for your business plan. As we can see by Belanger; Iontophoresis is a viable option for many different pathology presentations in your clinic including; pain, myopathy, myositis ossificans, tendonitis and epicondylitis. Although we highlighted a few safety parameters in a previous blog, the majority of these may be overcome with care and precision during your application. The science behind iontophoresis has been studied since 1747 and we now must take this delivery system seriously.

If cost is now your only deterrent, you needn’t worry. We have recently been informed by a well-respected physiotherapist who quotes the price of Iontophoresis at $16.22 per dose. Included in this quoted price is the RRP for the packet of two drugs he uses (Dexa and Lignocaine) at $152.30 and $47.90 respectively and the electrodes ($149 for 12). However the initial up front cost for the machine was quoted at $469.10. This initial outlay for the machine may be overcome, as Iontophoresis is a long term, reliable method of drug delivery and its support will only grow as time passes.

There we have it bloggers, we hope that we have informed you about everything Iontophoretic. If you have any further questions don’t hesitate to reply to our blogs.
