Nanosponges: A Versatile Novel Drug Delivery System

Abstract

Nano sponges are tiny sponges that may circulate throughout the body and connect to the surface, releasing the substance in a controlled and predictable manner. The development of a nanosponge-based drug delivery system has been a significant step forward in tackling some biopharmaceutical issues. Nanosponge is a polymer-based sphere that can be used for both oral and topical medication delivery. For targeted drug delivery, a wide range of pharmaceuticals can be placed into nanosponge. Both lipophilic and hydrophilic medicines can be put into nanosponge. Another notable property is their aqueous solubility, which allows them to be utilized more consistently for drugs with low solubility, enhancing bioavailability, reducing drug toxicity, and preventing drug degradation. The goal of this paper is to explain the general introduction, characteristics, method of preparation, characterization and applications of nanosponges.
