A REVIEW: NANOPARTICLE IN PHARMACEUTICAL DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM

Abstract

Nanotechnology” is the most recent development in the field of pharmaceutical sciences. Nanopharmaceuticals are made up of goods that are nanoscale and can be altered in a variety of ways to enhance their properties. The use of nanoparticles in tissue engineering, medication transport, imaging, sensing, disease diagnostics, and treatment holds great promise for understanding fundamental biological processes. The use of nontechnology in medicine and drug administration has created new avenues and opened numerous doors to offer safer and more individualised treatment options. High stability, high specificity, high drug-carrying capacity, controlled delivery, targeted release, flexibility in using different routes of administration, ability to deliver both hydrophilic and hydrophobic drug molecules, and site-specific targeting are just a few of the many benefits that make nanoparticles more promising and efficient than traditional drug delivery systems. Drug delivery systems and numerous other sectors have seen revolutionary advances as a result of nanomaterials such as polymeric nanoparticles, magnetic nanoparticles, liposomes, carbon nanotubes, quantum dots, dendrimers, metallic nanoparticles, and polymeric nanoparticles. In order to administer medications over longer periods of time with less frequent doses, as well as with greater precision and penetration in tissues that are difficult to reach, researchers can manipulate molecule size and surface features. This chapter provides an overview of the various kinds of nanopharmaceuticals, including their characteristics, preparation techniques, benefits, and uses in the pharmaceutical and medical industries.
