Nano materials is a new type of drug carriers with very promising application. In recent years, great progress was achieved in making drugs own the characteristics of targeted and con-trolled release via nanotechnologies. This paper addressed the capability of nano drugs on tar-geting to cells, penetrating through epicyte, controlled release and the security issues re-sulting from its using. We gave the prospect of nano drugs in biology and medicine applying.
