(EMAILWIRE.COM, December 23, 2010 ) Boca Raton, FL --- PharmaJet’s product delivers vaccines and other liquid medications through the skin. They accomplish this using jet injection technology. They do not use needles – big or small, or patches of any kind.
Their needle-free delivery device is FDA cleared for marketing. The custom-wound spring in the injector provides a unique force that drives the liquid through a tiny hole in the end of the syringe, thus creating a “fluid needle” that is able to penetrate the skin. It can deliver 0.5 ml of a liquid medication through the skin of the arm, the abdomen or the thigh, into the muscle (intramuscular or IM area) where many vaccines are routinely delivered, or into the subcutaneous layer or SC depth between the skin and muscle.
PharmaJet is developing a 0.1 ml device for intra-dermal delivery into the 2 mm upper layer of the skin where the immune system is very active. For some vaccines, intra-dermal delivery has the potential to reduce the amount of vaccine required, in some cases by as much as 80%, leading to cost savings and expanded coverage for vaccines in limited supply. It may also enable vaccines to work, which may not otherwise work with traditional needle-syringe delivery.rnrnJL Haber, Vice President of Programming at Multi Media Productions, added,
“With a unique approach to the needs of the medical industry, PharmaJet was a natural fit for our show. We are excited to have them as a guest on our program.”
About PharmaJet
PharmaJetÂ’s needle-free injector utilizes a sterile, single-use, auto-disable syringe, which creates a safer work place for healthcare workers, eliminating the possibility of needle-stick injuries. The syringe can only be used one time, which greatly controls the spread of deadly blood-borne pathogens and eliminates the possibility of cross-contamination between patients from needle reuse. Also, the reduction in hazardous needle sharps waste will provide a great cost savings while benefiting the environment. The PharmaJet needle-free injection system is helping to alleviate the fear and anxiety that goes along with getting a needle injection for many children and tens of millions of "belenophobics," who until now have had no practical recourse to their fear of needles.
We are an early stage business that has developed a better method of using jet injection technology. Our mission to serve the global community is shared by both our employees and our investors, and our opportunity to serve individual patients and also public health needs worldwide is enormous.
