RESUMO

Microneedle arrays are micron-sized needles usually attached to a supporting base or patch facilitated drug delivery for systemic effects. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) is a lactam polymer containing an internal amide linkage. Because of its versatility and biocompatibility, it has been widely utilized to treat several skin, bone and eye problems. Due to its specific and unique properties, the researchers realize its utility as a polymer of tremendous potential. PVP-based dissolvable microneedles have widely been utilized as a carrier for delivering DNAs, proteins, vitamins, and several biological macromolecules transdermally. However, it does not get biodegraded into the body. Therefore, the presence of its fragments in the body post-treatment needs proper justification. The adequate justification for the fate of the fragment's end products in the body will allow even better utilization of PVP. This review analyses and illustrates various experimental findings to highlight the most recent advancements and applications of PVP microneedles in drug delivery systems and cosmetology and the potential for PVP microneedles in treating dermal and systemic disorders. This review presents the expected mode of PVP biodegradation in aqueous and soil environments as a waste material, its inertness, biocompatibility, and the importance of PVP as a fabricating material, pharmaceutical uses, and non-toxic profile.
