Chitosan and its derivatives as vehicles for drug delivery can achieve the purpose of sustained release and controlled release for drugs, improve the stability of drugs, and reduce adverse drug reactions. So, the bioavailability of drugs can be enhanced. Therefore, chitosan and its derivatives have become a hotspot in the field of drug delivery. Their characteristics as drug delivery vectors were introduced, the types and applications were summarized. The development direction of chitosan and its derivatives in this field was also forecasted.
