Abstract

Drug delivery system (DDS) is of increased importance in terms of controlled and targeted release of a therapeutic entity that highly recognizes the target site. To date, several significant scaffolds as DDS have been introduced; among them, the hybridized realm has recently got more importance than single DDS because of addressing biocompatibility issues, higher blood circulation half-life, and target recognition. This chapter focuses on the major classes of hybridized nano-DDS, drug uploading modalities, controlled drug release types, and their applications in the biomedical realm.
