    TLDR Nanocarriers make melatonin more effective and reduce side effects.
    The use of nanocarriers for melatonin delivery enhances its therapeutic effects by improving its precision and efficiency in targeting specific organs or tissues, thereby reducing side effects. Melatonin, known for its antiapoptotic and antioxidant properties, shows increased efficacy when delivered via various nanocarriers such as lipid-based, hybrid, and synthetic types. This review highlights the potential of melatonin-loaded nanocarriers in the prevention and treatment of various diseases, emphasizing their clinical interest and the need for optimal delivery systems to maximize melatonin's benefits.
