In particular, cyclodextrins complexation is mainly utilized to improve the physicochemical and biological properties of drugs, including solubility, stability, and bioavailability, and to reduce their irritating effect. Nevertheless, some disadvantages related to the fast removal of the complex from blood circulation after in vivo administration, and possible competition effects for interaction with cyclodextrin between the complexed drug and other molecules present in the biological environment, can reduce their efficacy as drug carriers. On the other hand, chitosan is widely employed to take advantage of its mucoadhesive, controlled\/targeted release, and permeation-enhancing properties. However, its almost complete insolubility in water and poor affinity towards hydrophobic molecules (as most drugs are) are considered its main drawbacks, which could strongly limit its applicability. Due to the several beneficial properties of both cyclodextrins and chitosan, their joint use could provide additional favorable effects in drug delivery and help overcome their disadvantages, in particular by combining the complexing\/solubilizing ability of the former towards hydrophobic molecules with the mucoadhesive and controlled\/targeted release properties of the latter. The present review is intended to provide a critical and comprehensive summary of the main relevant investigations performed in the last twenty-five years regarding the applications and possible advantages that can be obtained by the combined use of cyclodextrins and chitosan in the development of more effective drug delivery systems.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/pharmaceutics18020156","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,26]],"date-time":"2026-01-26T08:14:23Z","timestamp":1769415263000},"page":"156","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Advantages of the Combined Use of Cyclodextrins and Chitosan in Drug Delivery: A Review"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9755-0911","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paola A.","family":"Mura","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemistry Ugo Schiff (DICUS), University of Florence, Via Schiff 6, Sesto Fiorentino, 50019 Florence, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"121500","DOI":"10.1016\/j.carbpol.2023.121500","article-title":"Cyclodextrins and derivatives in drug delivery: New developments, relevant clinical trials, and advanced products","volume":"324","author":"Kali","year":"2024","journal-title":"Carbohydr.
