Skin permeation enhancer compositions comprising glycerol monolaurate and lauryl acetate

Compositions, devices, and methods for transdermal administration of an active agent are disclosed using a novel dual permeation enhancer mixture comprising lauryl acetate and a monoglyceride, preferably glycerol monolaurate. The dual permeation enhancer mixture comprising lauryl acetate is a potent permeation enhancer and provides stable systems which are more readily characterized.
