Microemulsions in Pharmaceutical Applications: A Comprehensive Review of Formulation, Stability, And Delivery Systems
Bhargav Parmar | Drashti Dave | Dr. Chainesh Shah | Dr. Umesh Upadhyay [2]
Abstract: Micro emulsions are intricate liquids of great technological significance. They often need to incorporate functional additives like drugs, polymers, and nano particles, which adds to their complexity. Understanding and managing micro emulsions requires a variety of complementary techniques. These systems are transparent, stable, and uniform mixtures of oil, water, and surfactant, sometimes including a co - surfactant. They are particularly interesting to pharmaceutical researchers because of their potential as drug delivery systems, capable of integrating a wide array of drug molecules. This commentary provides a thorough overview of micro emulsions, including their formation, the factors influencing their stability, and their recent applications. The exploration of micro emulsions for drug delivery continues to be a compelling area of study due to their numerous potential benefits and unique properties.
