The optimum three formulae were incorporated into a gel, evaluated physically, in vitro dissolution, and ex vivo drug permeation using rat skin and Iontophoresis was performed on the best formula.Results: The optimum three formulae (F29, F31, F32) had an EE% of 97± 0.26%, 89± 0.25% and 88± 0.17%, PS of 244± 5.88 nm, 337± 4.6 nm and 382.2± 3.06 nm, PDI of 0.57± 1.9, 0.5± 1.4 and 0.63± 2.2 and ZP of − 31.6± 1.59 mV, − 28.3± 3.79 mV and − 31± 5.65, respectively. Selecting F29 for in vivo study by iontophoretic enhancement, Cmax was increased by 1.85 folds compared to the commercial oral tablet and by 1.5 folds compared to transdermal gel. Tmax decreased by half using iontophoresis compared to commercial tablets and transdermal gel.Conclusion: The transethosomal formulation of telmisartan enhanced its transdermal absorption and increased its bioavailability as well. Iontophoresis was used to increase maximum plasma concentration and reduce Tmax by half.Keywords: telmisartan, TEL, entrapment efficiency, EE, transethosomes, iontophoresisTeaima MAbdelmonem RAdel YAEl-Nabarawi MAEl-Nawawy TMDove Medical Pressarticletelmisartantelentrapment efficiencyeetransethosomesiontophoresis.Therapeutics.
