Nanotechnology in drug development from "summary" of Chemistry for Pharmacy Students by Lutfun Nahar,Professor Satyajit D. Sarker
Nanotechnology has emerged as a promising field in drug development, offering innovative solutions to existing challenges in pharmaceutical science. By manipulating materials at the nanoscale level, scientists can design drug delivery systems that enhance drug efficacy, reduce side effects, and improve patient compliance. One of the key advantages of nanotechnology in drug development is its ability to target specific cells or tissues within the body. Nanoparticles can be engineered to deliver drugs directly to the site of action, allowing for lower doses to be administered while achieving the desired therapeutic effect. This targeted approach minimizes systemic exposure and reduces the risk of adverse reactions. Furthermore, nanotechnology enables the controlled release of drugs over an extended p...
