The objective of the investigation was to optimize the iontophoresis process parameters of lisinopril (LSP) by 3 x 3 factorial design, Box-Behnken statistical design. LSP is an ideal candidate for iontophoretic delivery to avoid the incomplete absorption problem associated after its oral administration. Independent variables selected were current (X(1)), salt ( sodium chloride) concentration (X(2)) and medium/pH (X(3)). The dependent variables studied were amount of LSP permeated in 4 h (Y(1):Q(4)), 24 h (Y(2):Q(24)) and lag time (Y(3)). Mathematical equations and response surface plots were used to relate the dependent and independent variables. The regression equation generated for the iontophoretic permeation was Y(1) = 1.98 + 1.23X(1) - 0.49X(2) + 0.025X(3) - 0.49X(1)X(2) + 0.040X(1)X(3) - 0.010X(2)X(3) + 0.58X(1)(2) - 0.17X(2)(2) - 0.18X(3)(2); Y(2) = 7.28 + 3.32X(1) - 1.52X(2) + 0.22X(3) - 1.30X(1)X(2) + 0.49X(1)X(3) - 0.090X(2)X(3) + 0.79X(1)(2) - 0.62X(2)(2) - 0.33X(3)(2) and Y(3) = 0.60 + 0.0038X(1) + 0.12X(2) - 0.011X(3) + 0.005X(1)X(2) - 0.018X(1)X(3) - 0.015X(2)X(3) - 0.00075X(1)(2) + 0.017X(2)(2) - 0.11X(3)(2). The statistical validity of the polynomials was established and optimized process parameters were selected by feasibility and grid search. Validation of the optimization study with 8 confirmatory runs indicated high degree of prognostic ability of response surface methodology. The use of Box-Behnken design
