ZAFEMY is a transdermal system with a contact surface area of 12.5 cm 2 . It contains 3.15 mg norelgestromin, USP (NGMN) and 0.289 mg ethinyl estradiol, USP (EE), and its delivery rate is approximately 150 mcg of NGMN, USP and 35 mcg of EE, USP per day. Systemic exposures (as measured by area under the curve [AUC] and steady-state concentration [C ss ]) of NGMN, USP and EE, USP during use of ZAFEMY are higher and the C max is lower than those produced by an oral contraceptive containing norgestimate, USP (NGM) 250 mcg / EE, USP 35 mcg [see Boxed Warning and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . ZAFEMY is a thin, matrix-type transdermal system consisting of three layers. The backing layer is composed of a tan backing consisting of pigmented polyethylene and polyester. It provides structural support and protects the middle adhesive layer from the environment. The middle layer contains polyisobutylene/polybutene adhesive, polybutene, crospovidone, oleyl alcohol and dipropylene glycol as inactive components. The active components in this layer are the hormones, NGMN, USP and EE, USP. The third layer is the release liner , which protects the adhesive layer during storage and is removed just prior to application. It is a transparent polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film with a silicone coating on the side that is in contact with the middle adhesive layer. The outside of the backing layer is printed with “Norelgestromin and Ethinyl Estradiol 150/35 mcg per day” in brown ink. The structural formulas of the components are: Norelgestromin, USP ethinyl estradiol, USP Molecular weight, NGMN, USP: 327.47 Molecular weight, EE, USP: 296.41 Chemical name for NGMN, USP: 18, 19-Dinorpregn-4-en-20-yn-3-one, 13-ethyl-17-hydroxy-,3-oxime,(17α) Chemical name for EE, USP: 19-Norpregna-1,3,5(10)-trien-20-yne-3, 17-diol,(17α)
