Design and Characterization of Nanoemulsion for Transdermal Delivery of Meloxicam
Abstract
AbstractMeloxicam is used to treat pain or inflammation in treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and other joint diseases. The main objective of this study is to develop a potential of nanoemulsion for transdermal delivery of meloxicam for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. Solubility of the meloxicam was determined in different oils, surfactants and cosurfactants. Of the oil tested, labrafil 1944 CS was chosen as oil phase of nanoemulsion, as it showed a good solubilizing...
