Abstract:  Transdermal compositions for pain management are comprised of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, opioid drugs, and adjuvant drugs acting on: voltage-gated channels, gamma-aminobutyric acid receptors, acute musculoskeletal pain, and as an antidepressant. In this work, baclofen, bupivacaine, cyclobenzaprine, diclofenac, gabapentin, ibuprofen, ketamine, and pentoxifylline were loaded in transdermal compositions, prepared using a mixture of lipids (isopropyl palmitate and mineral oil) and one of two selected penetration enhancer mixtures: alkyl dimethicone, phenyl trimethicone, and polyoxyethylene sorbitan monostearate; and cetostearyl polyoxyethylene ether and ethylene oxide/propylene oxide copolymer. The influence of penetration enhancers on transdermal delivery was evaluated using Franz-type diffusion cells and Normal Human 3D Model of Epidermal Tissue. Results showed that drug delivery is affected by the penetration enhancer used in the transdermal composition.
