Abstract

A topical o/w cream containing tretinoin microspheres was prepared. Gelatin microspheres of tretinoin were prepared using coacervation method. These microspheres contained about 50% w/w tretinoin. The particle size range of microspheres was between 90-150 µm. In vitro drug release from microspheres and a cream formulation was studied. It was shown that drug release from microspheres followed Higuchi kinetics of release. However, drug release from the cream formulation followed zero order release profile.
