Benefits of technology

"The present invention is about new pharmaceutical compositions that can be applied through the skin. These compositions are made up of an emulsion of oil in water, containing a steroidal anti-inflammatory agent, a pro-penetrating system (which includes a glycol and an additional pro-penetrating agent), and a polymeric emulsifying system. The technical effect of this invention is that it provides a more effective and efficient way to deliver these pharmaceutical agents through the skin, resulting in better absorption and reduced inflammation."

Problems solved by technology

However, the stabilization of a formulation comprising such a percentage of glycol makes it necessary to include in the emulsion emulsifiers and stabilizers of glyceryl stearate or PEG 100 stearate type or, alternatively, stabilizers or consistency factors of white wax or cetostearyl alcohol type, which lead to the formation of a thick cream of waxy appearance.

Abstract

Stable, topically applicable, non-greasy and non-tacky oil-in-water (O / W) anti-inflammatory emulsions, useful, e.g., for the treatment of psoriasis, contain: a. a therapeutically effective amount of at least one steroidal anti-inflammatory agent, notably clobetasol propionate; b. a pro-penetrating system which includes at least one pro-penetrating glycol and at least one other pro-penetrating agent; and c. at least one polymeric emulsifier not sensitive to electrolytes, for example not an acrylate / C10-C30 alkyl acrylate copolymer, formulated into a topically applicable, pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle therefor.
