The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of the stability of hydrogen-bonded ion pairs with organic amines on transdermal penetration of teriflunomide (TEF). Five organic amines, diethylamine (DEtA), triethylamine (TEtA), diethanolamine (DEA), triethanolamine (TEA), and N-(2'-hydroxyethanol)-piperdine (NP)
