Emulgel is an emerging delivery system with added advantages over other topical delivery systems which is proven to be boon for cosmetics and dermatology. Emulgels are emulsion which is converted to Gel, which will make it a non greasy and enhances patient compliance. The amalgamation of the two systems would be advantages in term of high drug loading capacity and low skin irritation, site specific targeting avoiding first-pass metabolism and increase in bioavailability. Work carried out by researchers proved that, Emulgel/ Nanoemulgel loaded with drugs has been found effective in many topical disorders and it is emerging as potential drug delivery system in area of dermatology. In the present review current research works that carried out on Emulgel and nano emulgels are discussed and also highlighted the recent applications of Emulgel in transdermal as well as dental, ocular, vaginal, and other delivery system.
