ABSTRACT

Introduction: Microemulsions have attracted the interest of formulation scientists since their discovery, owing to their superior properties in terms of stability, solubility, simplicity, and formulation features. Methods: An extensive search was carried out in different databases viz. Scopus, Embase, Cochrane and PubMed. The keywords used in the search were microemulsions, formulation of the microemulsion, different types of microemulsions and advantages of microemulsions. All the studies published in English and studies researched microemulsion its therapeutic benefits. Results: A microemulsion is a thermodynamically stable, transparent mixture of two immiscible liquids stabilized by surfactant. Microemulsions have a number of advantages over conventional formulations, including increased drug solubility, thermodynamic stability, ease of manufacture, and penetration. Conclusion: This review aims to talk about how microemulsions are made and how they can be used in improved drug delivery. Keywords: Microemulsion, Hydrophobic, Hydrophilic, Phase inversion, Phase titration, Surfactants, active drug
