      In the last two decades, nanotechnology has revolutionized different areas of research as well as life. It has demonstrated its promising power to resolve the majority of medical problems like infectious diseases, cancer, genetic disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, etc. Nanomedicine, which refers to highly specific medical intervention at the scales of 100 nm or less for diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, is one of the most promising areas of nanotechnology.

      The major face of nanomedicine is “drug delivery,” which is considered as one of the most promising functions of nanotechnology and can maneuver molecules and supramolecular structures to create devices with programmed functions. The current drug delivery systems are distributed into the nano‐ and microscale systems which mainly involve the use of nanoparticles, liposomes, polymeric micelles (nanovehicles), dendrimers, nanocrystals, microchips, microtherapeutic systems, aptamer‐incorporated nanoparticles, and novel microparticles of size 100 nm. These technologies will be expanded in the future to establish efficient nano/microdrug delivery systems in a manner which will provide future necessities of medicine in terms of diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases, with special focus on those microbes which are emerging as drug‐resistant.
