A REVIEW ON APPLICATIONS OF DENDRIMERS IN TRANSDERMAL DRUG DELIVERY
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 11
Abstract
Dendrimers formulations were significantly explored over the last decade for the transdermal drug delivery applications. The ability of transdermal drug delivery systems (TDDS) to deliver and maintain a constant therapeutic concentration of drug offers a significant potential for safe administration of therapeutic agents. The higher level of control possible over the architectural design of dendrimers; their size, shape, branching length/density, and their surface functionality clearly distinguish it as unique and optimum carriers in TDDS applications. In this paper we have attempted to summarize the applications of dendrimers in the field of transdermal drug delivery by citing numerous investigators over the last decade.
