Abstract

Vesicular medication delivery system, for example, Niosomes is a novel medication delivery system, in which the vesicles composed primarily of synthetic surfactants and cholesterol.. Niosomes are selfassembled vesicles, which are biodegradable, relatively nontoxic, more stable and inexpensive. The niosomes provides several important advantages over conventional drug therapy. Various drugs are enlisted and tried in niosomes surfactant vesicles. Niosomes proved to be a promising drug carrier and has potential to reduce the side effects of drugs and increased therapeutic effectiveness in various diseases. This article presents an overview of the techniques of preparation of niosomes, types of niosomes, characterisation and their applications.

Keywords: Noisome, Preparation, Characterizations, and Applications.
