The aim of the study was to design a textile material as a carrier for dermatological drugs. Cotton fabric was chosen for experimentation to be a fibrous support for the system. Additional components were a drug carrier in form of synthetic hydrogel impregnation (partially crosslinked poly(acrylic acid) and a bioactive agent dithranol) dispersed within the gel. The rate of release of the drug from the fibrous system was measured in aqueous media and depended on the concentration of dithranol. The structure and physical properties of the material were designed and controlled in order to ensure the optimal contact with the skin. Clinical studies were carried out with psoriatic patients. The results of the treatment with the textile material containing dithranol were presented using a computer optimalization method. In conclusion it was asserted that this type of textile-based medical device is effective and in many respects more convenient and less troublesome alternative in the treatment of psoriasis as compared to conventional treatments with dithranol suspended in ointments and creams.
