PG - 4712-4727 LID - 10.1007/s12010-023-04576-w [doi] AB - An effort was made to administer paracetamol drug through transdermal patch, as no such formulation of this drug has been developed yet. The primary cause for the lack of such formulations is paracetamol's poor aqueous solubility. As a result, the current research concentrated on preparing nanomedicines, or drug-loaded nanoparticles, for delivery via transdermal formulations. Nanoparticles can improve the solubility of weakly aqueous soluble or even aqueous insoluble drugs by changing the crystalline structure of loaded medicines to an amorphous state and serving as drug permeation boosters. Silica nanoparticles (SNPs) were synthesized through sol-gel technique to achieve the aforementioned goal. DLS data revealed that the average particle size was around 100-200 nm, which was sufficient to penetrate the skin barrier. XRD analysis showed that the SNPs were amorphous, and the drug molecules lost their crystallinity after encapsulation into the nanoparticles, causing the enhancement of dissolution of drug molecules in physiological pH (pH-7.4). Different kinetic models were employed for the ex vivo dissolution data to evaluate the suitable kinetic model followed by the drug release in both burst and sustained phase. In vivo analgesic study was executed on mice applying each of the transdermal formulations to examine the performances of the patches. CI - (c) 2023.
