Supported by the advantages provided by the developments in bio-nanotechnology, personalized medicine studies are gaining great importance in the development of the most appropriate and effective treatment methods specific to each individual. To achieve success in the treatment of deadly diseases, personalized treatment approaches are extremely significant for advanced understanding of disease and development of innovative nanomaterials-based strategies. In this chapter, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) based on controlled drug systems and developments in the field of personalized medicine and their biotechnological use are examined, and their contributions to the field of health-nanotechnology are emphasized. CNTs have gained popularity in a variety of study fields due to their chemical, physical, surface, mechanical, thermal, electrical, and biological capabilities. These features have made CNTs a popular choice in a variety of applications, including health, imaging, optical, material, electrical, and sensor technologies. However, the hazardous potential of CNTs remains an essential study area. Extensive research is being carried out to better understand their possible impact on health. Current research has shown that the toxicological profile and mechanism of CNTs can vary greatly depending on exposure route, surface chemistry, and morphology. These elements contribute to the diversity of experimental outcomes and their interpretations. As a result, this book chapter will go completely into CNTs' diverse issues, including biocompatibility, biodegradability, toxicity, drug release and delivery mechanisms. It also strives to provide a holistic perspective by providing the most recent biotechnological advancements, experimental data, and innovative nanotechnological tactics in depth.
