Abstract
Disclosed herein is an aqueous emulsion. The lipid phase of the emulsion includes a blend of a therapeutically effective concentration of a lipophile, a concentration of Vitamin E TPGS, and a concentration of linoleic acid. The presence of linoleic acid increases the solubilizing affect of Vitamin E TPGS on the lipophile and thus reduces the amount of Vitamin E TPGS that would otherwise be required in the aqueous emulsion.
