Herbal medicines have long been valued for their therapeutic potential, yet their clinical use is often limited by poor solubility, low bioavailability, and inconsistent efficacy. This timely volume explores how nanotechnology is revolutionizing herbal medicine by transforming traditional phytoconstituents into advanced nano-formulations with enhanced stability, targeted delivery, and superior therapeutic outcomes.Featuring contributions from leading experts, the book covers cutting-edge topics including liposomal, dendrimeric, micellar, and solid-lipid nanocarriers; transdermal, pulmonary, mucoadhesive, and oral nano-herbal systems; green synthesis approaches; theranostic applications; and nano-herbal strategies for cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, wound healing, skin care, and antiviral therapy. It also addresses critical challenges such as biocompatibility, toxicity, manufacturing scalability, and regulatory considerations.An essential resource for researchers, pharmacologists, nanotechnologists, and clinicians seeking to bridge traditional herbal wisdom with modern drug delivery science.Key Features:Comprehensive Coverage: Presents the latest advances in nano-herbal formulations across diverse drug delivery routes including oral, transdermal, pulmonary, mucoadhesive, and theranostic systemsTherapeutic Applications: Explores targeted nano-herbal strategies for cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, wound healing, skin applications, antiviral therapy, and beyondGreen and Innovative Approaches: Highlights green synthesis methods, novel nanocarriers (liposomes, dendrimers, micelles, solid-lipid NPs, gold NPs), and stability/manufacturing solutions for scalable productionCritical Insights: Addresses biocompatibility, toxicological issues, clinical trials, market status, regulatory challenges, and future perspectives in herbal nanomedicineMultidisciplinary Expertise: Features contributions from leading international researchers, offering a balanced integration of traditional herbal knowledge with cutting-edge nanotechnology
