Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic strongly stimulated research on anti-SARS-CoV-2 virus treatments. present study reviews a nanotechnology approach to this task, i.e. , in other terms, nanomedicine approach. Nanotechnology aims create nanostructures or nanoparticles, also called nanoformulations, for targeted delivery of drugs, as well improved drug release control. This is particularly promising enhance the antiviral effect natural pro-drugs. Here, we review several nanoformulations developed medications against SARS-CoV-2. We draw special attention repurposing strategies known and therapies. Also, functionalized nanoparticles with specific targeting moieties functional groups were discussed. summary could motivate researchers pursue more studies exciting area by seeking nanotechnology-based, cutting-edge, tailored SARS-CoV-2 virus.
