Abstract:

At present, the prevention and control of tuberculosis are still severe. However, the conventional anti-tuberculosis drug regimens have several limitations such as a long course of treatment, high incidence of adverse reactions, and poor patient compliance, which often lead to treatment failures. Therefore, there is an urgent need for new drugs or new dosage forms that can control tuberculosis. The nano-drug delivery system loaded with anti-tuberculosis drugs can actively or passively deliver drugs into infected macrophages or focal sites for sterilization, and it also have advantages of sustained-release administration, reducing dosing frequency and dose-dependent adverse reactions. etc. This article reviews the application and prospect of nano-drug delivery systems in the treatment of tuberculosis.
