The first system used for estrogen delivery through skin was the application of estrogen dissolved into a water–alcohol solvent in a form of gel for the treatment of postmenopausal symptoms [80] [...] EstroGel (Solvay) has been in the Europe market for more than 25 years, but approved in the US only in 2004. EstroGel contains 17β-estradiol in a hydro-alcoholic gel base which renders a controlled release profile.

The first transdermal patch for HT was Estraderm (Novartis, Switzerland) which was launched in Europe in 1985 and has been widely used ever since. [...] Transdermal matrix patches. [...] Climara (Berlex, Montville, NJ) was first introduced as the matrix patch in 1995.
