In this trial, a topical formulation of a 1% liposome TH cream was compared to a conventional TH formulation. Permeation was evaluated through a synthetic membrane. The study provided information on the rate of diffusion and percentage of drug release and also compared the penetration dynamics in the layers of the stratum corneum of both formulations. Liposome TH cream was able to deliver the active ingredient to a larger number of SC layers, with a higher amount of drug, which is very promising for the treatment of superficial mycoses.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
