Abstract
Study Background: The increasing demand for effective transdermal drug delivery systems has led to the exploration of innovative nanocarriers. Nanosponges, characterized by their porous structure and biocompatibility, present a promising solution for enhancing drug solubility and skin permeation. Research Goals and Hypotheses: This review aims to evaluate the potential of nanosponges as versatile nanocarriers for the effective delivery of drugs through the skin. The hypothesis posits that nanosponges can significantly improve the bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy of various drugs when formulated for transdermal application. Methodological Approach: The authors review various synthesis methods for nanosponges, including solvent evaporation and interfacial polymerization. They analyze the physicochemical properties of the nanosponges and their ability to encapsulate different drug types, assessing the release profiles and permeation studies to demonstrate their effectiveness in skin delivery.
