Abstract In the Present Study, lornoxicam and curcumin entrapped ethosomal gel for transdermal drug delivery was prepared by using various concentrations of phospholipids and ethanol. Novel ethosome gel was developed and evaluated for its anti-inflammatory activity. Therefore, drug of herbal origin will also be formulated separately and compared with that of the formulations developed with the synthetic drug. The vesicle size and entrapment efficiency of lornoxicam ethosomes dispersions was found to be in the range of 356.45±0.14to 436.65±0.23 And 58.98±0.32 To 71.56±0.45% and the vesicle size and entrapment efficiency of curcumin ethosomes dispersions was found to be in the range of 498.56±0.23 to 312.25±0.58and 60.25±0.21 to 73.23±0.14%. In formulation lef1-lef6 (for lornoxicam) and cef1- cef6 (for curcumin) amount of ethanol and phospholipid were optimized, it was found that lef4 having higher ethanol shows good entrapment efficiency and smaller vesicle size compared to other formulation. optimized batch of ethosomes formulation (LEF4 And CEF4) was incorporated into gel base concentration 0.5, 1 and 1.5% w/w. Prepared Gel was evaluated for physical characteristic, ph, washability, spreadability, viscosity and in vitro drug release study.The regression coefficient values of were compared, it was observed that ‘R’ Values Of Formulation Was Maximum In First Order I.E 0.994 And 0.983 For LG2 And CG3 respectively. Release data of both the formulation indicate that the lornoxicam loaded ethosome gel showed maximum release 78.98% after 8 hrs while curcumin loaded ethosomes gel showed only 71.56% drug release after 8 hrs.
