COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR ENHANCING THE TOPICAL APPLICATION OF A BASIC BENEFIT AGENT

摘要

A powder is disclosed including core/shell particles having an average particle size of less than 1000 microns, each particle contains a liquid core that is substantially free of water and includes A) a polar liquid having a percent surface polarity of at least 24%, a basic active ingredient, and C) from about 0.1% to about 20% by weight of at least one acidic solubility enhancing agent that is not an active ingredient; and a shell comprising hydrophobic particles. The powder can be used to topically administer the active ingredient to a human or animal.
