Abstract:
The Present research is based on developing Topical gel formulation of fluconazole with the help of natural Aloe Vera gel. Fluconazole is a Triazoles derivative and used to prevent and treat candidiasis. Taking fluconazole by oral administration is not considered appropriate as it has many side effects. Commercially fluconazole topical gel preparations are available in market which is formulated with the help of synthetic polymer. Thus, this formulation is made for better patient compliance and to reduce the dose of drug and to avoid side effect like liver damage kidney damage and safe in pregnancy. Methods: The gel was formulated by changing the synthetic polymer. Various formulations like (F1, F2, F3, F4, F5 and F6) were developed by using natural polymer aloe Vera. The formulation was evaluated for % yield, spread ability, extrudability, wash ability and viscosity in vitro release study, Skin irritation study, stability testing. Result: Carried out viscosity studies of various formulations evident that formulation F1 was better to compare to other. From among all the developed formulation F1 show better drug diffusion, good rheological properties, pH of F5formulation is sufficient to treat the skin infection. Result indicated that the concentration of aloe Vera significantly affected drug release and rheological properties of the gel. Conclusion: it was calculated that formulation F1 was the best formulation among this formulation. Hence formulation F1 should be further developed for scale-up to industrial production.
