Abstract: Dermatitis, a common inflammatory skin condition, poses significant challenges in treatment due to its complex etiology and varied clinical manifestations. In recent years, natural extracts have garnered attention for their potential therapeutic properties in dermatological applications. This study focuses on the development of a hydrogel formulation containing bay leaves extract for the treatment of dermatitis. The hydrogel was formulated using biocompatible polymers and incorporated with bay leaves extract known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. Physicochemical characterization revealed a stable hydrogel with desirable rheological properties, ensuring ease of application and adherence to the skin. Overall, the developed hydrogel formulation holds promise as a novel therapeutic approach for dermatitis, offering potential benefits in alleviating symptoms and promoting skin healing. Further clinical studies are warranted to validate its efficacy and safety in human subjects, thereby advancing its translation into clinical practice for the management of dermatological disorders.
