PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a self-adhesive composition for skin application, forming a self-adhesive layer of skin patch having excellent applicability to skin (retention, fixing force), does not cause pain in peeling and does not generate paste residue in peeling, and a skin patch having excellent sustained-release properties and stability with time of a medicine.SOLUTION: The self-adhesive composition for skin application comprises an acrylic copolymer obtained by polymerizing a monomer composition containing an N-vinyl cyclic lactam monomer and an acrylic monomer but not containing a monomer containing a carboxy group or hydroxy group, and a polyisocyanate compound. The skin patch comprises a self-adhesive layer formed from the composition, and a medicine storage layer. The skin patch has a self-adhesive layer formed from the composition and contains a medicine in the self-adhesive layer.COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT【課題】良好な皮膚貼付性(保持力、固定力)を有し、剥がす際に痛みを伴わず、剥がした際に糊残りが発生することがない皮膚貼付剤の粘着剤層を形成できる皮膚貼付用粘着剤組成物、及び、薬物の徐放性及び経時安定性に優れる皮膚貼付剤を提供する。【解決手段】N-ビニル環状ラクタム単量体及びアクリル系単量体を含み、かつカルボキシル基又は水酸基を有する単量体を含まないモノマー組成物を重合して得られるアクリル系共重合体、並びにポリイソシアネート化合物を含有する皮膚貼付用粘着剤組成物;該組成物から形成された粘着剤層と、薬物貯蔵層とを有する皮膚貼付剤;並びに、前記組成物から形成された粘着剤層を有し、前記粘着剤層に薬物が含有されている皮膚貼付剤。【選択図】 なし。
