Xylome’s TopicOil® provides a large carrying capacity for hydrophobic drugs.

DRUG DELIVERY

The Problem

Topical hydrophobic drugs have limited formulation options.

Hydrophobic drug formulations feel oily and skin-drying emulsifiers are undesirable.

Commercial liposomes have been used, but their diameters are less than 0.2 microns.

In addition, low volume to surface ratios affect drug loading. Emulsion formulations have similar limitations.

TopicOil® is a radically new topical drug delivery platform.

TopicOil® has a higher drug-carrying capacity, smoother texture and sealing properties unlike anything else on the market.

Xylome’s highly purified TopicOil™ lipid bodies are an order of magnitude larger in diameter – ranging from 5 to 12 microns on average.

Xylome presents a greatly improved solution to hydrophobic and hydrophilic topical drug delivery.
