Abstract

Transdermal administration of drug is generally limited by the barrier function of the skin vascular system are one of the most controversial method for 
transdermal delivery of active substance. transdermal drug delivery system is designed to deliver biological active agents through the skin, principally 
by diffusion for local internal if not systemic effects. The transdermal delivery system was relaunched after the discovery of elastic vesicles like 
transfersome, ethosome, cubosome, phytosome etc. Transfersomes are a form of elastic or deformable vesicle, which were introduced in the early 1990s. 
Elasticity is generated by incorporation of edge activator in lipid bilayer structure. Drug absorbed and distributed into organs and tissue and eliminated 
from the body it must pass through one or more biological membranes at various locations such movement of drug across the membrane is called as 
drug transport for the drug delivery to cross the body it should pass through the membrane barrier. This concept of drug delivery system was designed 
in attempt to concentrate the amount of drug in the remaining drug; therefore, the phospholipid-based carrier system is of considerable interest in the era
