Scientists dedicated their efforts to enhancing drug delivery methods while preserving the integrity of these methods' undesirable traits. This dedication ultimately resulted in the creation of proniosomes, a revolutionary medication delivery system. Due to their unique benefits, proniosomes stand out from niosomes and liposomes. These proniosomes are made of non-ionic, water-soluble dry formulations that are added to a carrier system. Upon hydration, these proniosomes transform into niosomes, effectively addressing the instability issues associated with traditional delivery systems. Niosomes, in turn, exhibit tremendous potential for improving the dissolution, accessibility, and absorption of a wide range of medications, whether they are hydrophilic or hydrophobic. Additionally, proniosomes offer a versatile approach to drug delivery, enabling precise medication delivery to the desired target site. The risk of unwanted side effects is reduced by this regulated release technique. Recognizing and understanding the limitations of each study is imperative since each research approach possesses its unique set of advantages and drawbacks. Observational studies can employ a variety of design methodologies, including ecological, prospective, retrospective, case-control, case- crossover, or cross-sectional cohort designs. In the realm of diagnostic research, a critical subset of observational experiments is dedicated to comparing the accuracy of different diagnostic methods and tests against established diagnostic benchmarks. It is essential to underscore that biomedical research heavily relies on data collected through rigorously validated scientific methodologies and employs appropriate statistical methods to derive meaningful insights. Consequently, selecting a robust study strategy is paramount in ensuring an objective and impartial evaluation of research inquiries. This comprehensive review encompasses a wide array of facets related to proniosomes, encompassing their advantages, preparation techniques, mechanisms of action, materials and specifications, study designs, as well as characterization and evaluation parameters.
