Pharmaceutical Nanotechnology

Abstract

Pharmaceutical nanotechnology is a modern and unique branch of pharmaceutics based on nanotechnology that shows potential applications in treating diseases. This branch is mainly concerned with nano-scaled formulations with versatile advantages. Pharmaceutical nanotechnology arouse great impact onto the formulation design of both academy and industry. Herein, we reviewed the characteristics of nano-drug delivery systems. Further, we discuss the various types of nanoformulations and their applications. Though still with challenges, pharmaceutical nanotechnology, with no doubt, casts new lights in modulating the drug delivery, optimizing the in vivo distribution and increasing the treating efficacy.
