Abstract
The rising demand for eco-friendly and sustainable healthcare solutions
has fueled interest in plant-based therapeutics. Azadirachta indica A. Juss
(Neem), known for its broad-spectrum antimicrobial and medicinal properties,
represents a promising candidate for transdermal drug delivery systems. This
study focuses on the formulation of a transdermal patch incorporating the
aqueous extract of A. indica and evaluating its antimicrobial efficacy. The
patch was prepared using biodegradable polymers to ensure skin compatibility
and controlled drug release. Antimicrobial activity was assessed against
selected bacterial and fungal strains, demonstrating significant inhibitory
effects compared to controls. The findings suggest that neem-based transdermal
patches hold potential as a green therapeutic approach for managing microbial
infections, combining sustainability, patient compliance, and effective drug
delivery.
