Abstract Natural polymers have gained significant attention in the development of novel drug delivery systems due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and low toxicity. These polymers, derived from plant, animal, and microbial sources, offer a versatile platform for targeted and controlled drug release, minimizing side effects and enhancing therapeutic efficacy. Key examples include chitosan, alginate, gelatin, and cellulose derivatives, which are explored in diverse drug delivery formats like hydrogels, nanoparticles, and microcapsules. Their structural flexibility enables drug encapsulation, sustained release, and specific targeting to diseased tissues or organs. Moreover, natural polymers can be functionalized to respond to physiological triggers such as pH, temperature, and enzymes, optimizing drug bioavailability and patient compliance. the landscape of personalized medicine. This review underscores the benefits, challenges, and future prospects of natural polymers in creating effective, safe, and innovative drug delivery systems.
