topical and transdermal drug delivery systems are noninvasive and can be self-administered with the minimization of side-effects, have received increased attention during the past few years. nanoemulsions, emulsions sized between 20-200 nm with narrow distributions, offer several advantages for topical and transdermal delivery of pharmaceutical agents including controlled droplet size, the abil...

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...

the topical delivery of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nsaids) such as ibuprofen has been explored as a potential method of avoiding the first pass effects and the gastric irritation, which may occur when used orally. ibuprofen is formulated into many topical preparations to reduce the adverse effects and simultaneously avoid the hepatic first-pass metabolism as well. however, it is dif...

conclusions combination therapy with tretinoin plus topical corticosteroids is safe and effective and provides an alternative in the treatment of patients with vitiligo. objectives recent studies suggest that administration of topical tretinoin, with a corticosteroid, diminishes skin atrophy without impacting the steroid’s anti-inflammatory effects. patients and methods a placebo-controlled, pa...

objective(s):drug delivery through the skin can transfer therapeutic levels of drugs for pharmacological effects. analgesics such as nsaids have gastrointestinal side effects and topical dosage forms of these drugs are mainly preferred, especially for local pains. meloxicam is one of nsaids with no topical form in the market. in this research, we attempted to quantify the skin permeation of a m...
