        abstract = {Microemulgel formulations represent a promising advancement in the topical drug delivery system, combining the advantages of microemulsions and gels to enhance drug permeability and retention on the skin. Microemulsions, being thermodynamically stable, transparent systems, provide a suitable vehicle for the solubilization of both hydrophilic and lipophilic drugs. When incorporated into a gel matrix, microemulsions form a microemulgel that combines the superior permeation abilities of microemulsions with the desirable consistency of gels, facilitating easier application and improved patient compliance. This unique formulation has shown effectiveness in delivering drugs across the stratum corneum while prolonging drug release and enhancing bioavailability. The microemulgel system's stability and efficacy make it particularly suitable for treating localized skin disorders and conditions requiring controlled drug delivery. The review explores the composition, preparation techniques, evaluation parameters, and applications of microemulgel in dermatology and transdermal drug delivery, highlighting its potential as a carrier for various drugs.},
