If one is searching for a perfect example of why the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 was needed, this 1901 SWANSON'S RHEUMATIC CURE CO. foldover brochure would fit the bill (Figures 1A, 1B, and 1C). The SWANSON "FIVE DROP" REMEDIES were heralded as "the faithful guardian and sentinel of the human system" that "stands at the door and challenges every germ that knocks for admittance." FIVE DROPS had an "unfailing effect in the following diseases Rheumatism in all its forms, Sciatica, Backache, Neuralgia, Nervousness, Sleeplessness, Nervous and Neuralgic Headaches, Nervous Dyspepsia, and Nervous affections of every description, Asthma, Hay Fever, Croup and Bronchitis, Catarrh, Heart Weakness, Toothache (authors' emphasis), Earache, La Grippe, Malaria, Creeping Numbness and kindred diseases." What couldn't these drops cure? A bottle of Swanson's Five Drops is pictured in Figures 2A and 2B.

Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are the allotropes of carbon in nanosize rendering them popular in the field of medicines. These nano-based technologies are gaining interest in the treatment of disease which was previously seemed to be impossible for treating. CNT gained significance in the treatment of the majority of disorders such as Malaria, Alzheimer's disease, Infectious disease, Asthma. Patients responsiveness has increased in cardiovascular, pulmonary diseases. To date, the number of reviews available in the literature covering applications of CNT in the cancer disease. However, the purpose of this review is to focus on the use of carbon nanotubes in drug delivery of non-cancerous disease. The novelty of this review is it is focused on the applicability of CNT in the various non-cancerous diseases. Detailed information gathered from the past literature can guide and encourage researchers to explore the applicability of CNT in various non-cancerous diseases in the future.
