Objective: The focus of this research was out whether a transfersomal gel formulation for transdermal delivery of Metronidazole. Methods: Azole Antifungals include metronidazole, which is used to treat fungal and yeast infections. Transferosomes are supra-molecular aggregates that are ultra-flexible and have a high ability to penetrate mammalian skin intact. Drug encapsulation in various transfersomal formulations containing various ratios of different drug concentrations (0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 g) and Carbopol-934 (0.5, 1, 2 g) is being researched for use as a transferosomal gel.Results: Entrapment efficiency (EE %), drug content, in-vitro skin permeation tests, and stability investigations were performed on the produced formulations. The vesicles were spherical in shape, as confirmed by Transmission Electron Microscopy. Metronidazole was successfully pinned with a standardised drug content in all formulations, according to the resultsThe 0.1 g Metronidazole optimised transferosome formulation MG2 showed promising results, with maximum drug release (94.32%) and maximum drug release (94.32%). Conclusion: According to this report, transferosomes are a promising long-term delivery mechanism for metronidazole and have reasonably good stability.This study suggests that transferosomes containing Metronidazole may be used as a transdermal drug delivery tool for fungal skin infections.

Objectives: This review provides a detailed review of the treatment of obesity with natural products that are formulated as phytosomes. When novel drug delivery technology is used instead of traditional drug delivery in herbal medicine, side effects are reduced while safety and efficacy are improved.This article provides information about obesity along with its treatment and with special emphasis on phytosomes, their preparation and evaluation along with their application in obesity. Methods: A comprehensive search of electronic databases such as Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library, Google, and Google Patents was carried out. Results: This review explains the details of research done on phytosomes with special reference to anti-obesity drugs. Still, there is a need to formulate anti-obesity herbal drugs as phytosomes to get better bioavailability, and fewer side effects. This phytosomal drug delivery approach may resolve the problems associated with conventional drug delivery. Conclusion: Integrating herbal medicine with novel drug delivery systems such as phytosomes to combat obesity has a significant scope and importance.
