Drug delivery system using polymer-coated magnetic carriers is considered as an effective strategy for passive targeting, which can not only increase drug utilization but also reduce the adverse reaction. With the carriers, sensitivity to physical stimuli (e.g., magnetic field, pH) has been developed and drugs were conjugated to form incorporating magnetic particles, so that drugs could be located to desire position.
