Abstract: The present study focuses on the formulation and evaluation of a topical niosomal gel containing Naproxen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), to enhance its therapeutic efficacy and provide sustained drug release. Niosomes, which are non-ionic surfactant-based vesicles, were prepared using the ether injection method with Tween 80 and cholesterol in varying concentrations. Nine formulations were developed using a 3² factorial design and evaluated for particle size, zeta potential, entrapment efficiency, and in vitro drug diffusion. Among them, batch F9 exhibited optimal characteristics, including a particle size of 242.7 nm, zeta potential of -21.7 mV, entrapment efficiency of 95%, and drug content of 88.83%. The optimized niosomal suspension was incorporated into a Carbopol 940 gel to prepare the final niosomal gel formulation. The gel was further characterized for pH (6.2), spreadability, drug content (73.23%), viscosity, and in vitro drug release. Diffusion studies confirmed a sustained release of 55.81% over 6 hours, with drug release best fitting the Kosmeyer-Peppas model (R² = 0.9655), indicating controlled diffusion. The study concludes that niosomal gel offers a promising strategy for effective topical delivery of Naproxen with prolonged action and improved patient compliance.
