Nanotechnology is a multidisciplinary science and an emerging field of research that provides scientists, the opportunity to manipulate matter at atomic and molecular scale. Nanotechnology has a huge impact on medicine. The application of nanotechnology for imaging, diagnosis and treatment of various bone diseases like tumors, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and osteomyelitis is going to trending in medicine. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, incapacitating disease of the joints, characterized by painful swelling and progressive damage to the connective tissues affected. It is the most common joint-related autoimmune disease and one of the most severe and major cause of disability and morbidity in present world. The use of nanotechnology in medicine specifically nano-drug delivery system is spread rapidly. Controlled drug delivery systems have several advantages compared to the traditional forms of drugs. The present review is about nanotechnological approach to treat rheumatoid arthritis.
