Abstract

A micro sponge delivery system is patented, highly cross-linked, porous and polymeric in nature. Polymeric system consisting of porous microspheres that can entrap wide range of actives and then release them onto the skin over a time and in response to trigger. The fundamental appeal of the micro sponge technology overcome the problems of greasiness, stickiness associated with the conventional formulations in releasing active ingredients over an extended period of time that often result in lack of patient compliance. When applied to the skin, the MDS releases its active ingredient on a time mode and also in response to other stimuli (rubbing, temperature, pH, etc). Delivery system comprised of a polymeric bead having network of pores with an active ingredient held within was developed to provide controlled release of the active ingredients
