The present study was performed to explore the matrix property of Ficus glomerata fruit mucilage for making transdermal patches. The mucilage was evaluated for its physicochemical properties. Various transdermal patches of indomethacin were prepared by solvent evaporation technique using different proportions of F. glomerata fruit mucilage. The compatib...

the present study was undertaken to develop a suitable transdermal matrix patch of ketorolac tromethamine with different proportions of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (pvp) and ethyl cellulose (ec) using a d-optimal mixture design. the prepared transdermal patches were subjected to different physicochemical evaluation. the surface topography of the patches was examined by scanning electron microscopy (s...

The study aimed at determining the effect of acid modified porcine mucin powder on the release and permeation of insulin in transdermal patches. Various batches of insulin patches were prepared by solvent casting method using polysorbate 80 as emulsifying agent and acid treated and untreated mucin powders as base. The patches were evaluated for their physical properties, folding endurance, moi...

As skin is a readily accessible organ of the body, it acts as the portal of entry for extraneous substances for their effective transdermal delivery. Possessing various advantages, it has the limitation of low permeability of drugs across it, limiting the efficacy of drugs. Therefore, various carrier systems have been developed to enhance the permeation deep into the systemic circulation. The p...

Transdermal patches are now widely used as cosmetic, topical and transdermal delivery systems. These patches represent a key outcome from the growth in skin science, technology and expertise developed through trial and error, clinical observation and evidence-based studies that date back to the first existing human records. This review begins with the earliest topical therapies and traces topic...

Transdermal matrix type patches of terbutaline sulphate were fabricated using ethyl cellulose and cellulose acetate polymer. The highest release rate was observed from CP3 and EP2 patches. Transdermal patches CP3 and EP2 were found to be physically stable with regard to drug content, tensile strength, folding endurance, thickness, and weight variation. The drug permeation from both the patches ...
