Nanoscale carriers offer several advantages that make them crucial in modern medicine:
1. Targeted Delivery: They can deliver drugs directly to diseased cells, reducing the impact on healthy cells. 2. Enhanced Efficacy: By concentrating the therapeutic agent at the site of action, nanoscale carriers can improve the effectiveness of treatments. 3. Reduced Side Effects: Targeted delivery minimizes the systemic distribution of drugs, thereby reducing side effects. 4. Controlled Release: Many nanoscale carriers can be designed for sustained or controlled release of the therapeutic agent, improving treatment outcomes.
