NANOTECHNOLOGY DEPENDENT DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS: A REVIEW PAPER

  • Bhupinder Bhyan

Abstract

Nanomedicine and nano delivery systems are a relatively new yet rapidly evolving science in which nanoscale materials are used to serve as diagnostic instruments or to supply therapeutic agents in a managed manner to determine targeted locations. In the treatment of chronic human diseases, nanotechnology provides many advantages by site-specific and target-oriented delivery of precise drugs. A variety of outstanding applications of nanomedicine (chemotherapeutic agents, biological agents, immunotherapy agents, etc.) have recently been reported in the treatment of different diseases. The current review provides an updated overview of recent developments in the field of nanomedicine and nano-based drug delivery systems through thorough scrutiny of the discovery and use of nanomaterial’s to enhance both the effectiveness of new and old drugs (e.g., natural products) and selective diagnosis through molecules of disease markers. Nan medicine’s prospects and problems are also addressed in the delivery of drugs from synthetic/natural sources to their clinical applications. In addition, we have included data on developments and viewpoints in the field of nanomedicine.
