Treating neurological illnesses is challenging because the blood-brain barrier hinders therapeutic medications from reaching the brain. Recent advances in polymeric nanocarriers (PNCs), which improve medication permeability across the blood-brain barrier, may influence therapy strategies for neurological diseases. PNCs have several ways to deliver medications to the nervous system.
