TLDR Emulgel improves skin delivery of various drugs better than traditional methods.
Emulgel is a novel topical drug delivery system that combines the properties of gels and emulsions to enhance the delivery of hydrophobic drugs through the skin. This system features a dual release control mechanism, making it more effective than traditional topical delivery methods. Emulgel can be used to deliver a variety of medications, including analgesics, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and anti-acne treatments, as well as cosmetic formulations. The inclusion of permeation boosters further enhances its effectiveness, positioning emulgel as a superior option for topical drug delivery.
