Abstract: Introduction: Hydroquinone (HQ), a famous anti-hyperpigmentation agent, suffers from several weaknesses such as instability due to rapid oxidation and insufficient skin penetration because of the hydrophilic structure. The aim of this research was to formulate, characterize and evaluation of in vitro skin permeability of HQ-loaded microemulsion (ME). Methods: HQ MEs were prepared by pseudoternary phase diagram method, the appropriate ratios of oil, s/c mixture, and water were chosen, and full factorial design … Show more

“…The permeability coefficient and flux from the rat skin increased significantly in all ME formulations with different features and compositions. In addition, several studies have confirmed the advantages of ME vehicles as promoters of dermal delivery (23,25), which can increase skin permeation by changing drug diffusion or partitioning coefficient (22).…”

“…According to previous studies, the S/C content in ME vehicles majorly influences the skin permeation of hydroquinone (23). Glycols (PEG400) can improve skin permeation through different mechanisms, including lipid and protein extraction, swelling of the stratum corneum, enhancing drug partitioning into the skin, and improving drug solubility in the formulation (22).…”
