Overview of Microemulsion

Microemulsions are clear, stable and isotropic liquids. It is the mixture of oil, water and surfactant with the use of co surfactants. It acts as a potential drug carrier for parenteral, topical and oral administration. The microemulsion is one of the most used novel drug delivery systems for pharmaceutical applications. They show favorable characteristics such as long shelf life, improved drug solubilization and ease of preparation. Most of the novel vehicles are used for sustained and controlled release systems. They are versatile systems that show a wide range of compounds mainly hydrophobic and hydrophilic domains. They aimed at controlling the bioavailability of the various drug molecules. The review puts forward the recent development of a micro emulsion based system.
