Abstract:
INTRODUCTION:Leishmaniasis is a global public health concern. Currently available treatments are associated with considerable side effects. The use of nanotechnology has shown promise for improving efficacy and bioavailability and minimizing side effects. METHODS:This study investigated available literature, including patents and scientific articles, to identify advances in the use of nanotechnology for the treatment of leishmaniasis. RESULTS:Our findings revealed a stable number of patents and scientific articles published over the past five years. CONCLUSIONS:There is a need to intensify research on the use of nanotechnology for the treatment of leishmaniasis.
