Nanomedicine is a branch of medicine that uses nanotechnology for disease prevention and treatment. It has revolutionized medicine by improving drug efficacy, reducing toxicity, and targeting drug delivery. Nanomedicine has shown significant potential in treating major diseases like cancer, infections, and cardiovascular diseases. Although clinical implementation is still limited, the use of nanoscale drugs is increasingly being explored to minimize side effects and improve therapeutic outcomes.
Nanomedicine is a branch of medicine using nanotechnology to prevent and treat diseases. Nanotechnology represents one of the most effective approaches in elevating a drug's treatment efficacy and reducing toxicity by improving drug solubility, altering biodistribution, and controlling the release. The development of nanotechnology and materials has brought a profound revolution to medicine, significantly affecting the treatment of various major diseases such as cancer, injection, and cardiovascular diseases. Nanomedicine has experienced explosive growth in the past few years. Although the clinical transition of nanomedicine is not very satisfactory, traditional drugs still occupy a dominant position in formulation development, but increasingly active drugs have adopted nanoscale forms to limit side effects and improve efficacy. The review summarized the approved nanomedicine, its indications, and the properties of commonly used nanocarriers and nanotechnology.
