Abstract
The basis of Indian medical systems is
Ayurveda. The potential of natural bioactive components is of significant
interest to the researchers. The creation of efficient, secure, and
long-lasting repellents is necessary since mosquito-borne illnesses present
serious threats to world health. To battle mosquitoes, a variety of repellents
have been introduced to the market. Conversely, the mosquitoes became resistant
to them. Additionally, a range of known and undiscovered adverse side effects
are being reported by consumers. In order to counteract the negative effects of
other commercially available mosquito repellents, the researcher was required
to create and assess Emulgel that contained various essential oils. This study
focuses on the formulation and evaluation of an emulgel-based mosquito
repellent incorporating Lavender essential oil, Lemongrass essential oil,
Cedarwood essential oil, Clove oil, Citronella oil. A promising topical drug
delivery method for both hydrophilic and hydrophobic medications is emulgels.
They improve the drug's effect and increase its absorption.
