REVIEW ON EMULGEL A NOVEL APPROACH FOR TOPICAL DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM
Description
Emulgel is currently attracting researchers for its potential as a drug delivery system by loading a broad range of drug molecules. Emulgel is formed by incorporating either o/w or w/o emulsion in a gel base formed by a gelling agent. By incorporating emulsion into a gel enhances the stability and makes it a dual control release system. When compared with other topical drug delivery systems emulgel shows better drug release and enhanced patient compliance due to the presence of soluble excipients. The current review gives an overview of ideal properties with special emphasis on the formulation and evaluation of emulgel.
