Abstract
The Greek word "liposome" means "fat" and "soma" means body. Liposomes are sphere- shaped vesicles made of cholesterol and phospholipids. Its hydrophobic and lipophilic nature makes it a very promising mechanism for the delivery of medications. The goal of the new method of drug delivery is to target the drug directly at the active site. However, the application and development of these products remain challenging because of the costly and time-consuming processes involved in their creation and production. Therefore, in order to overcome these obstacles, further research and development are needed
