Prefilled Syringes
To expand the limits of transdermal drug
delivery, developers are employing electrical
current to affect active transport through the skin.
This technique can increase the upper molecular size
limit dramatically, opening up a host of
opportunities for transdermal delivery.
Iontophoresis products are ........more
Pen Injectors
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 ......more
Autoinjectors
For drugs
developed for self-administration,
autoinjectors have been shown
to provide a more user-friendly outer package and
improved compliance. While autoinjectors are
sometimes designed to work with a particular
injectable product as a form of pharmaceutical
branding, the typical autoinjector is designed to
fit one or more.......more
Point-of-Delivery Drug Reconstitution Systems
..formulated as powders (lyophilization). Lyophilized proteins must
be reconstituted prior to injection.
Lyophilized drugs are sold with
reconstitution vial systems, or packaged in
special injection devices (e.g., pens,
needle-free injectors, two-part syringes)
that allow reconstitution to take place in
the device prior to injection. As biological

Injectable Drug Delivery
Within the injectable segment, the sands
are shifting as several factors converge to drive demand for delivery
methods that increase safety, compliance and ease-of-use. While the
economics of traditional disposable syringe devices remain compelling, a
number of companies are combining synthetic materials .....more
Retractable Safety Syringes
New materials and innovative designs have
led to improved safety syringe products and more competitive price
points. Safety syringes will continue to grow at the expense of
traditional syringes driven by regulatory initiatives to reduce
cross-contamination of medical personnel via accidental needle-sticks.........more
Disposable Injection Devices
.a new generation of
sophisticated, application-specific disposable
injection devices designed to satisfy caregiver and
patient preferences while addressing managed care
initiatives and the limitations of new classes of
therapeutic drugs These new devices will have a
significant impact on the future of patient .....more
