Abstract

This chapter comprises of the basic information about nano-pharmaceuticals tools in personalized and customized drug delivery system dealing in association with genetic polymorphisms as an introduction, followed by the utility and risk parameters involving the conventional nano drug delivery strategies and their pitfalls. The chapter describes the various nano tools such as polymeric nanoparticles, solid lipid nanoparticle, liposomes, etc. overcoming the available conventional drug delivery strategies. We also discuss nanotechnology as an advance tool in targeting various diseases such as Alzheimer’s and in cancer chemotherapy illustrating in detail to satisfy the current community needs—“Maximum Efficacy: Minimized Side Effect.” It also includes the critical attributes involved in the process of formulation development in respect to customized drug delivery to bypass the rate limiting step associated with protein barriers (which are overexpressed due to specific single nucleotide polymorphism) to get high comfort maximized therapeutic action. This entire chapter will pave a new trend towards the application of nano-pharmaceuticals in the field of novel drug delivery system.

Keywords: Nanotechnology, nano-pharmaceutical tools, nanomedicines, personalized medicine, patient compliance, drug delivery, drug therapy, toxicity
