Abstract

The application of Quality Target Product Profile (QTPP) in optimizing nanoemulsion (NEM) shows immense potential in advancing pharmaceutical formulation design for effective drug delivery. By aligning QTPP with nanoemulsion attributes, this approach offers a pathway to tailored formulations that meet specific therapeutic objectives and responses. Incorporating QTPP facilitates informed choices in formulating design, covering pivotal factors like stability, drug re-lease kinetics, bioavailability, and precise targeting. Moreover, this review extensively explores the real-world application of QTPP-guided tactics in refining nanoemulsion optimization. It high-lights their pivotal role in anticipating and regulating in vivo responses, encompassing vital as-pects like pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. By conducting thorough examinations of case studies and research outcomes, this article clarifies the effectiveness of aligning QTPP crite-ria with NEM characteristics. This approach fosters the creation of customized formulations pre-cisely suited to achieve distinct therapeutic objectives. This review amalgamates contemporary insights into harnessing QTPP for nanoemulsion optimization, illuminating its capacity to stream-line formulation design, amplify treatment effectiveness by desiring drug release, and catalyze transformative shifts in pharmaceutical research.
