Abstract

Conventional drug delivery system has many problems so bulk of research has now shifted
from synthetic drugs to herbal drugs. This is possible because of the vast variety of bioactive
molecules in the plants and their higher safety margin. This present study is focused on the
use of curcumin, the active constituent of Curcuma longa (haldi), and belonging to family
Zingiberaceae as an antioxidant agent. The main objective of present work was to develop the
transdermal patch of curcumin using polymer blends so that minimize the side effects and
maximize the therapeutic efficacy. The formulations were also evaluated for weight variation,
moisture uptake, thickness, moisture content, and folding endurance. Shows satisfactory
results.
