Preparation and Evaluation of Cyproterone Acetate Liposome for Topical Drug Delivery
Authors
Abstract:
Cyproterone acetate (CA) has been loaded to liposome by solvent evaporation and thin film formation technique. The effects of some formulation variables such as temperature of organic solvent evaporation, rotary evaporator speed, volume of organic solvent, volume of balloon and temperature of hydrating buffer has been evaluated. The data showed that bigger balloon with higher surface area has better capacity for lipidic film formation; also the best temperature for solvent evaporation and film hydration was 40 °C. According to the data with higher drug/lipid ratio, it is possible to load higher amount of drug into liposome but optimum loading could be obtained at phosphatidylcholine (PC): cholesterol/drug ratio of 1:2:0.5 (with maximum 74±6.11% loading efficiency). Finally percutaneous absorption of CA from simple gel and liposomal formulations was assessed. The results showed that liposomal formulation has better penetration potential than conventional CA formulation (simple gel).

A topical preparation containing aceclofenac was developed using an o/w microemulsion system. Isopropyl myristate was chosen as the oil phase as it showed a good solubilising capacity. Pseudo-ternary phase diagrams were used to obtain the concentration ranges of the oil, surfactant (Labrasol) and co-surfactant (plurol oleique) for microemulsion formation. Five different formulations were formul...

A topical o/w cream containing tretinoin microspheres was prepared. Gelatin microspheres of tretinoin were prepared using coacervation method. These microspheres contained about 50% w/w tretinoin. The particle size range of microspheres was between 90-150 m m. In vitro drug release from microspheres and a cream formulation was studied. It was shown that drug release from microspheres followed H...
