The purpose of this work is to develop novel lipid-based self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (SNEDDS) as carriers for transdermal delivery of curcumin. SNEDDS containing black seed oil, medium chain mono- and diglycerides and surfactants, were prepared as curcumin delivery vehicles. Their formation spontaneity, morphology, droplet size, and drug loading were evaluated. Gel preparation containing two of the SNEDDS formulations were used in the carrageenan induced paw edema to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect. Results showed droplet size as low as 71 nm. The highest drug loading was observed with SNEDDS-F6 of similar to 45 mg/g. In in-vivo investigation, SNEDDS-F6 exhibited significant anti-inflammatory activities in terms of 80% reduction in paw edema when compared with positive control. The prepared SNEDDS with the elevated entrapment efficiency, good transdermal penetration ability could be a suitable candidate for effective transdermal curcumin skin delivery.
