The application of nanocarriers in RA therapy has demonstrated considerable potential in enhancing the precision and effectiveness of drug delivery. By enabling higher concentrations of medication directly at the inflammation site, nanocarrier-mediated drug delivery systems can mitigate systemic side effects and improve therapeutic outcomes.
