This section is a part of the chapter: Mupirocin Emulgel: Formulation and Evaluation for the Management of Primary and Secondary Infections in Dry Skin Conditions
This study focuses on creating a special gel-like cream called an “emulgel” to deliver the antibiotic mupirocin more effectively through the skin. The emulgel combines oil and water-based ingredients to improve the drug’s absorption, spreadability, and skin retention. Scientists tested its texture, pH, consistency, drug content, and how well it releases the medicine over time. Tests on rat skin showed that the emulgel allowed for better drug penetration and longer-lasting effects compared to regular formulations, suggesting it could be a more efficient treatment for skin infections.
