With the advent of globalization, there has been a continuous increase in the risk of inflammatory diseases which in turn leads to the maximum usage of anti-inflammatory drugs. Currently, drugs used for anti-inflammatory therapies are costly with low efficacy, high health risk, and socio-economic impact due to the concern issue of their toxicity. Recently, nano-drug delivery system has been experiencing foremost interest as a new approach for targeting therapeutic agents to the target sites in a controlled, sustained manner and has various advantages as compared to the conventional drug delivery system like increased solubility, bioavailability, improves pharmacokinetic profile of drugs, surface area and rate of dissolution and additionally, overcomes the problems related to hydrophobicity, toxicity.
