Topical & Transdermal
Lipid-based drug delivery is an effective method for incorporating insoluble actives in topical and transdermal dosage forms by carrying the active in an oil in water emulsion that can be added into a cream or gel. Additionally, many of ABITEC’s functional lipids, when incorporated in topical dosage forms, can provide for increased transdermal delivery of actives.
Improved Solubility & Enhanced Permeation
Diffusion of active ingredients through the skin is affected by many factors, including the physiochemical nature of the respective active ingredient and hydration of the respective layers of the skin. ABITEC functional lipids can both enhance the solubility of insoluble actives intended for transdermal delivery, as well as increase the hydration of the skin layers improving active permeability through the skin. Complete solubility of the active is achieved by incorporating the active in a solubilizing lipid vehicle or in an oil in water emulsion, which maintains the active in a solubilized state. Simultaneously, the functional lipid vehicle or emulsion provides a moisturizing effect for the skin layers resulting in an increase in diffusion of the active across the layers of the skin.
