Chitosan-Decorated Polystyrene-b-Poly(Acrylic Acid) Polymersomes as Novel Carriers for Topical Delivery of Finasteride

The study explored the use of chitosan-decorated polystyrene-b-poly(acrylic acid) polymersomes as innovative carriers for the topical delivery of finasteride, a medication commonly used to treat hair loss. The research aimed to enhance the delivery and effectiveness of finasteride when applied to the skin. The polymersomes were designed to improve the drug's stability and penetration through the skin barrier. The study concluded that these chitosan-decorated carriers showed potential as effective delivery systems for finasteride, suggesting a promising approach for improving topical treatments for hair loss.
