Developing orally administered pediatric formulations presents significant challenges due to the unique characteristics of pediatric patients. Terbinafine hydrochloride (TER), a powerful antifungal agent, is effective against various fungal infections, including Tinea capitis, which is common in children. However, its low aqueous solubility necessitates innovative pharmaceutical strategies to enhance its effectiveness.

The present work focuses on the production of sildenafil co-evaporates loaded emulgels as topical dosage forms for the treatment of premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction. Topical administration of sildenafil citrate (SILD) co-evaporates is expected to improve the bioavailability profile of the drug and to avoid the severe side effects accompanying the traditional SILD dosage forms, especially for prohibited cardiovascular cases. Firstly, the solubility of SILD was improved via solid dispersion via co-evaporation technique using PEG-5KDa and PVP-K90 as hydrophilic carriers.

Microemulsions (MEs) are homogeneous, isotropic, transparent, and thermodynamically stable mixtures of water, oil, and surfactants. Their unique properties have garnered increasing interest across various fields, including chemistry, pharmacology, biotechnology, and biology. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of ME compositions, their macroscopic appearances, and the roles of their essential components - oil, water, surfactant, and co-surfactant - in controlling the nature and stability of MEs.
