The goal of this study was to see if microemulsions might be used as a transdermal drug delivery system for acemetacin (ACM). Microemulsions containing isopropyl myristate, Tween 80, Transcutol HP, Labrafil M1944 CS, ethanol, and distilled water were used to create pseudo-ternary phase diagrams. In…

Ocular chemical burns are prevalent injuries that must have immediate and effective treatment to avoid complications. Aiming to improve bioavailability and efficacy, a poloxamer-based thermoresponsive in-situ gelling system containing hyaluronic acid and indomethacin was developed. Formulations with…

We developed dithranol nanosponge integrated Carbopol hydrogel (DTHNS-HG) as a novel perspective for psoriasis management. Dithranol was chosen as antipsoriatic moiety for this system. In this study, our objective was to fabricate and evaluate DTHNS-HG for in vivo anti-psoriatic activity using mouse…
