Abstract

The applicability of liposomes as drug carriers for the topical route of administration was investigated using triamcinolone as a model drug. The liposomal encapsulation favourably altered the drug dipposition; the concentration of the drug decreased at the site of its adverse effects and increased at the site where its activity is desired. © 1980.
