[0002] Anti-inflammatory and anti-fire patches are external-use patches that usually contain some traditional Chinese medicine ingredients or chemical drug ingredients that have anti-inflammatory, heat-clearing, and detoxifying effects.

[0004] Traditional patches have low transdermal penetration rates (e.g., the transdermal penetration rate of azone permeation enhancer is only 12%), and the high-temperature process causes the volatilization loss of heat-sensitive ingredients such as borneol and menthol (retention rate ≤ 75%).

[0005] Therefore, a kind of external anti-inflammatory and fire-clearing patch and preparation method thereof are proposed. Summary of the Invention
