Abstract
Drug delivery systems are required to improve the pharmacological characteristics of several types of medicinal compounds, the development of innovative and efficient.In the current scenario there is abundance of drug delivery systems for the treatment of human diseases.To achieve this objective, several medicine delivery techniques have been devised and are being tried for nasal and pulmonary delivery.The performance of intelligent drug delivery systems is always being enhanced for effective therapeutic action while minimizing the negative side effects associated with it.One of the most prevalent elements on the planet is carbon and its allotropic modifications carbon nanotubes and graphene-based nanomaterials.These carbon nanostructures could be engineered to assist deliver or target drugs more reliably, as well as to innovate treatment methods.Carbon nanostructures can also be used for the treatment of cancer and the creation of novel diagnostic methods medicines for cancers.These methods are predicted to aid in the combination of molecular imaging for diagnostics with chemotherapy.This paper presents a review emphasizing on drug delivery systems, nanoparticles and the role of carbonbased nanoparticles like carbon nanotubes, graphene, Nanodiamonds, graphene quantum dots and fullerenes for researchers.
