Abstract: With nanomedicines increasing in market value and disruptive potential, a rapidly moving field such as this will require engaging in the difficult task of responsible management and the development of appropriate guidelines, which falls into the jurisdiction of governmental agencies. While each is influenced by the countries politics and demands of the people, there are shared goals of improving market success, risk assessment, and safety optimization. In this chapter, we describe the regulatory landscape with regards to nanomedicines in various countries. We first start with the world’s nanotechnological leaders in North America, the European Union, and Asian and then discuss the notable strides taken by emerging countries where nanomedicines have caught the public eye.
