Abstract
Nanoemulsions emerge as potential drug delivery systems in particular for cancer therapeutics either oral or pulmonary route. Lately, development in vegetable oil based nanoemulsions as a drug carrier system shows high possibility due to efficiency and stability. Palm based nanoemulsion consists of palm oil, surfactant, water and drug having a droplet size of less than 200 nm were developed systematically and optimized. It showed excellence physicochemical properties and also safe to be used in our body. Improvement on the nanodelivery of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) and cancer drugs via palm based nanoemulsion will become very beneficial for the pharmaceutical applications.
