: Intranasal drug delivery is a largely unexplored, promising approach for the treatment of various neurological disorders. However, due to the challenging constraints available in the pathway of nose-to-brain delivery, finding an effective treatment for Parkinsonism is still an impending mission for research workers. This warrants development of novel treatment alternatives for Parkinson's disease (PD). Intranasal delivery of mucoadhesive nanocarriers is one such novel approach which might help in curbing the glitches associated with the currently available therapy.: This review summarizes the evidences supporting nose-to-brain delivery of polymer-based mucoadhesive nanocarriers for the treatment of PD. A concise insight into the lipid-based mucoadhesive nanocarriers has also been presented. The recent researches have been compiled pertaining to the use of mucoadhesive nanocarrriers for improving the treatment outcomes of PD via intranasal drug delivery.: Although the use of nanocarrier-based strategies for site-specific delivery via intranasal route has proven effective, the magnitude of improvement remains moderate resulting in limited translation from industry to the market. Comprehensive understanding of the mucoadhesive polymer, its characteristics and mechanisms involved for an effective nose-to-brain uptake of the drug is a promising avenue to develop novel formulations for effective management of Parkinson disease.
