Nanotechnology in Drug Delivery Enhancing Efficacy and Minimizing Side Effects

Authors:-Dipika Chahal, Anushka Raut

Abstract:-Nanotechnology has emerged as a revolutionary approach in the field of drug delivery, providing a platform for designing and tailoring drug carriers at the nanoscale. This paper explores the applications of nanotechnology in drug delivery systems, highlighting its potential to enhance drug efficacy while minimizing side effects. Various nanocarriers, such as liposomes, nanoparticles, and dendrimers, have been developed to improve drug bioavailability, target specific cells or tissues, and achieve controlled release. Additionally, nanotechnology offers opportunities for personalized medicine by enabling the incorporation of therapeutic agents with high precision.

Keywords:-Nanotechnology, Drug Delivery, Nanocarriers, Targeted Drug Delivery, Controlled Release, Liposomes, Nanoparticles, Dendrimers, EPR Effect, Passive Targeting, Active Targeting, Polymeric Nanocarriers, Lipid-Based Nanocarriers.
