A comprehensive and detailed study of pen injector technology, products and participants, this report identifies, evaluates and forecasts the impact of pen injectors on the worldwide market for parenteral drug delivery. User-friendly designs and the availability of an increasing number of drugs in pre-filled disposable cartridges and syringes are propelling the growth of injector pens at the expense of other drug delivery methods such as traditional syringes. Advances in synthetic materials and concurrent development partnerships between pen designers and drug developers are important factors in the growth of this segment. Already a leading drug delivery method in Europe – more than half of all diabetics in Europe administer insulin via pen injectors – pen growth will expand as new therapies become available for pen devices. With product evaluations, industry data and forecasts, pen injector company profiles, and detailed analysis of design and economic factors, this  report has been organized and written to provide pharmaceutical professionals, drug delivery market participants, and healthcare organizations with all of the information necessary to understand the growing importance of pen injectors on drug development and delivery..
