FORMULATION, OPTIMIZATION & EVALUATION OF TRANSDERMAL PATCHES OF SALBUTAMOL SULPHATE
AbstractAim: The objective of the present research work was to formulate and compare two different kinds of penetration enhancer in transdermal patch with placebo patch using a drug (Salbutamol sulphate) and compare for in vitro drug release. Study Design: The transdermal patches of Salbutamol sulphate were prepared by solvent evaporation technique using different ratios of Hydroxy propyl methylcellulose (HPMC K15M) and Poly vinyl propylene (PVP K30). The prepared transdermal patches were evaluated on parameters like weight variation, thickness uniformity, moisture content, moisture uptake, folding endurance, tensile strength, drug content, in vitro dissolution studies, in vitro drug release, skin irritation test and stability studies. Maximum drug release was showed by Batch T, and the optimized formulation showed satisfactory characteristics
