Nanoparticle Carriers for Drug Delivery: An Updated Review.

The drug was initially administrated relying on pills, eye drops, ointments, and intravenous solutions. In the last decades, several novel technologies have emerged to overcome significant challenges including poor solubility, drug aggregation, low bioavailability, limited biodistribution, poor absorption in the body, lack of selectivity, or to minimize the adverse effects of therapeutic drugs. Drug delivery systems (DDS) can be designed to the technologies that carry drugs into or throughout the body of humans or animals to enhance therapeutic efficacy. DDS can also be considered for in vivo delivery, particularly for their use in peptide and protein therapeutics. Continued research may show the trends and perspectives of how drugs are delivered. In addition, this article includes comprehensive information regarding the trends and perspectives in DDS technologies.
