Which medication type is primarily used to deliver estrogen and other substances transdermally?

  1. Antacids

  2. Anti-psychotics

  3. Topical medicines

  4. Antidepressants

The correct answer is: Topical medicines

Topical medicines are primarily used to deliver estrogen and other substances transdermally due to their ability to be absorbed through the skin. Antacids, antipsychotics, and antidepressants may have other forms of administration, but they are not commonly associated with delivering hormones through the skin.
