The objective of research work was to improve the permeability of Ketoprofen and to provide controlled release of
drug to provide maximum effective concentration. Transdermal drug delivery systems are polymeric patches
containing dissolved or dispersed drugs that deliver therapeutic agents at a constant rate to the human skin. Matrix
type transdermal patches containing Ketoprofen were prepared by solvent casting method employing aluminium foil
method. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) 400 was used as plasticizer and Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was used as
penetration enhancer. Polymers were selected on the basis of its adhering and non-toxic property. Drug polymer
interactions determine by FTIR and standard calibration curve of Ketoprofen were determine by using UV estimation.
Transdermal patch was prepared by using HPMC K-4 M: PVP K-30, HPMC K-15 M: PVP K-30, HPMC K-100 M: PVP
K-30, Eudragit RS-100:PVP K-30 showed good physical properties. All prepared formulations indicated good physical
stability. In-vitro drug permeation studies of formulations were performed by using Franz diffusion cells using
abdomen skin of Wistar albino rat. Result, showed best in-vitro skin permeation through rat skin (Wistar albino rat)
as compared to all other formulations prepared with hydrophilic polymer containing permeation enhancer. The
permeability of Ketoprofen was increased with increase in PVP content. The burst effect due to the incorporation of
PVP was because of the rapid dissolution of the surface hydrophilic drug which gets swell and thus leads to the
decrease of mean diffusion path length of the drug molecules to permeate into dissolution medium and higher
permeation rates
