Vesicles as a tool for transdermal and dermal delivery.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Transdermal and dermal drug delivery is problematic because the skin, as a natural barrier, has a very low permeation rate. Therefore several methods have been assessed to increase this rate locally and temporarily. One approach is the use of vesicle formulations. In this paper the effectiveness of conventional and deformable vesicles as drug delivery systems as well as their possible mode of action as permeation enhancers or transdermal drug carriers will be discussed.:

Ethosomes: a Novel Nano Vesicular Carrier for Enhanced Dermal, Transdermal and Intracellular Drug Delivery
Ethosomes are ethanolic liposomes, a novel lipid vesicular carrier prepared using phospholipid, ethanol and water. Instead of rupturing the liposomal structure while increasing the ethanol concentration, vesicles superior in delivering the active ingredient into the deeper layers of the skin was obtained, named as ethosomes. In contrast to the liposomes and deformable liposomes, ethosomes have ...
متن کاملVesicular systems for delivering conventional small organic molecules and larger macromolecules to and through human skin.
The history of using vesicular systems for drug delivery to and through skin started nearly three decades ago with a study utilising phospholipid liposomes to improve skin deposition and reduce systemic effects of triamcinolone acetonide. Subsequently, many researchers evaluated liposomes with respect to skin delivery, with the majority of them recording localised effects and relatively few stu...
متن کاملA Review on Current Status and Future Potential of Transdermal Patches as a Promising Drug Delivery System
Transdermal patches are now widely used in topical and transdermal drug delivery systems (TDDS). Up to now, TDDS has been used in several conditions, such as smoking cessation, analgesic effect, nausea, contraception, and hormone therapy. Basically, there are two types of transdermal patches: the reservoir-type patches and the matrix-type patches. First generation TDDS were designed for deliver...
متن کاملFormulation effects of topical emulsions on transdermal and dermal delivery.
It has been recognized that the vehicle in which a permeant is applied to the skin has a distinctive effect on the dermal and transdermal delivery of active ingredients. The cutaneous and percutaneous absorptions can be enhanced, e.g. by an increase in thermodynamic activity, supersaturation and penetration modifiers. Furthermore, dermal and transdermal delivery can be influenced by the interac...

The aim of the present study was to develop and investigate the feasibility of delivering Nebivolol as a transdermal patch by iontophoresis. The passive and electrically assisted transdermal delivery of Nebivolol hydrochloride by iontophoresis will improve the therapeutic efficacy and overcome the difficulties raised in oral drug delivery. Because of its extensive hepatic metabolism and low dos...
