Abstract

Liposomal formulations have been used in the treatment of a number of dermatological diseases . Benzoyl peroxide is  the drug of choiceused  for the treatment of acne but  suffers from side effects  such as  skin redness, irritation, itching,  oedema and dryness. In this research work benzoyl peroxide was encapsulated  into liposomes, alongwith  herbal drug  resveratrol  for treatment of acne . Liposomes were prepared by thin film hydration technique and  evaluated   for pH ,  particle size , zeta potential  , FT -IR, XRD and TEM etc. which indicated suitable encapsulation of drugs in liposomes. Liposomal gel was prepared using  different polymers   and  evaluated  for colour, pH, drug content, homogeneity and grittiness and in vitro release studies .Suitable  penetration enhancers were added  to the selected preparation  . The final selected formulation was evaluated further for viscosity,  spreadibility ,drug release,  kinetic study and stability studies .Selected  liposomal gel showed prolonged release of  both drugs  and the product was found to be stable .Ex-vivo diffusion studies and drug deposition studies on animals was performed. Skin irritation studies on animals did not show any irritation,dryness or redness.
