Diffusion of betamethasone 17-Valerate from palm olein-based vehicle

The current study aims to produce pharmaceutical formulation using palm olein as the oil phase with betamethasone 17-valerate as the active ingredient and to compare efficacy with that of commercial products. Creams were prepared using Span® 20 and Tween® 20 as surfactants, Carbopol® 940 as thickene...
