Abstract
Prescribing drugs in a traditional way causes drug resistance and side effects. New strategies are being developed to solve these problems and to deliver drugs safely and efficiently to damaged tissues. Drug delivery systems are one of the successful strategies for delivering drugs to the disease site in the body. Hydroxyapatite (HA) due to its similarity to the compositional of bone and tooth and biocompatibility has received more attention in biomedical applications. Nonetheless, its applications are restricted by lower mechanical potency, low colloidal stability, and uncontrolled drug release. The composition of HA with polymers removes its defects as a drug delivery system. Hence, this paper provides clear information on the latest Hydroxyapatite nanocomposites (HAP-PNs) improvements as drug delivery systems. So, it supplies a precise insight into the various synthesis methods of HAp-PNs and newly developed nanocarriers from HAp-PNs. Moreover, this review confers HAp-PNs nanocarrier's possible usage and restrictions in different fields of medicine.
