The distinct structural properties of carbon nanoparticles, in particular their high aspect ratio and propensity to functional modification and subsequent use as carrier vectors, as well as their potential biocompatibility, make them useful for pharmaceutical nanodelivery. It is believed that the steady development and applications of CNTs can serve as a versatile tool for drug delivery. Therefore, the present review described about application of carbon nanotubes in drug delivery system.
