Transdermal delivery of ketorolac tromethamine, a potent non-narcotic analgesic, through human cadaver skin was investigated in vitro. A mixture of ethanol/water (40/60) containing 0, 1, 3, 5, and 8 (w/v)% L-menthol were used as a vehicle and penetration enhancer respectively. The permeation of ketorolac through human cadaver skin from saturated drug solution was evaluated at $37^{circ}C$ with modified Franz diffusion cell. The in vitro skin flux and lag time were $1.23;{pm};0.11;{mu}g/cm^2{cdot}hr$ and $5.56;{pm};0.34;hr$, respectively. The cumulative amount of penetrated ketorolac containing L-menthol in ethanol/water (40/60) binary system was increased by the following order; 3%, 5%, 8%, 1%, 0%, and the lag time was decresed by the following order; 3%, 5%, 8%, 0%, 1%. The results suggested that a potential use of 3% L-methol is an effective penetration enhancer of ketorolac tromethamine through the human cadaver skin.
