Abstrakt: Oleogels is a novel semi-solid system, focusing on its composition, formulation, characterization, and diverse pharmaceutical applications. Due to their stability, smoothness, and controlled release qualities, oleogels are frequently utilized in food, cosmetics, and medicinal products. Oleogels are meticulously formulated by combining oleogelators like waxes, fatty acids, ethyl cellulose, and phytosterols with edible oils, leading to a nuanced understanding of their impact on rheological characteristics. They can be characterized by methods like visual inspection, texture analysis, rheological measurements, gelation tests, and microscopy. The applications of oleogels are explored in diverse fields such as nutraceuticals, cosmetics, food, lubricants, and pharmaceutics. Oleogels have applications in topical, transdermal, and ocular drug delivery, showcasing their potential for revolutionizing drug administration. This review aims to enhance the understanding of oleogels, contributing to the evolving landscape of pharmaceutical formulations. Oleogels emerge as a versatile and promising solution, offering substantial potential for innovation in drug delivery and formulation practices.
