Background: The low solubility and poor skin permeability of sulfasalazine (SLZ) present significant challenges for its effective topical delivery. objective the current investigation is to formulate a hydrogel-based SLZ-loaded cyclodextrin nanosponge therapy in psoriasis. Methods: nanosponges were prepared by melt polymerization method evaluated physiochemical characteristics, drug release, cytocompatibility. selected (SLZ-NS4) transformed hydrogel further rheology, texture, safety, permeability, vivo anti-psoriatic effect mouse tail imiquimod-induced psoriasis-like inflammation models mice. Results: Physiochemical data confirms nanoscale architecture, inclusion nanosponges, crystalline structure, formulation stability. release profile SLZ-NS4 revealed sustained behavior (22.98 ± 2.24% 3 h). Cytotoxicity assays indicated negligible toxicity against THP1 cells, resulting higher viability cells than pure SLZ (p < 0.05).

Cyclodextrin (CD)–hydrogel hybrids have emerged as versatile and multifunctional drug delivery systems, offering enhanced solubility, controlled release, improved bioavailability. By combining the inclusion complexation properties of CDs with swelling retention capabilities hydrogels, these hybrid systems overcome key challenges in conventional formulations. This review explores CD composition, hydrogel polymer selection, fabrication techniques, release factors, real-world therapeutic applications. Additionally, latest advancements stimuli-responsive nanogels, microneedle-based are discussed. While CD–hydrogel demonstrate significant potential, scalability, regulatory hurdles, clinical translation remain challenges. Future research should focus on smart loading strategies, validation to bridge gap between laboratory innovations commercial
