OBJECTIVE:To screen the matrix formulation of Indomethacin hydrophilic gel patch. METHODS:Using appear-ance,adhesion,softness,moisture retention as indexes,mixed level of uniform design was used to screen matrix formulation of patch,verification test and in vitro transdermal test were used to evaluate the patch quality. RESULTS:Optimized matrix formula-tion was as follow as PVA of 7.686 g,PVP of 9.662 g,glyceryl of 19.992 g,gelatin of 9.999 g,CMC-Na of 13.997 g,carbomer of 3.000 g,HPMC of 1.500 g. The prepared patch had smooth surface,uniform matrix,good color,strong adhesion,good soft-ness(water loss rate of 11.9%). It can be slowly released for 48 h. The in vitro transdermal release fitted the Higuchi model(R2=0.9869). CONCLUSIONS:Indomethacin hydrophilic gel patch is successfully prepared,which can slowly release drug with over-all good quality.
Résumé
As a new physical penetration technology for transdermal administration, theFu’s cupping therapy was established in the past decade. It had obvious characteristics of Chinese medicine and unique advantages, such as simple device, easy to operate, and economical. Referring to the relevant research reports in recent years, this overview was given in several aspects, including its features, penetration factors,in vitro andin vivoevaluation method and other penetration technologies. The understanding of development trends in the pharmaceutical field laid the foundation for further study of Fu’s cupping therapy of new physical penetration.
