Abstract
Disclosed are hydrogel composition, method for preparing the same and use thereof. The hydrogel composition comprises a guar gum derivative which is crosslinked, a mint-based component, water, and optionally, an amphiphilic core-shell nanoparticle having a hydrophobic core and a hydrophilic shell, wherein the amount of the mint-based component is in the range of 1-6 wt % and the amount of the water is in the range of 65-95 wt %, based on the total weight of the hydrogel composition. The hydrogel composition is safe and can provide symptomatic relief for patients with symptoms such as severe and intractable pruritus associated with hypertrophic scars. The symptomatic relief effect of the hydrogel composition is reproducible, and is independent of the etiology of the burn trauma, extent of the scarring and duration of the scar formation, while tachyphylaxis is not observed. Also disclosed is a medical device comprising the hydrogel composition.
