Drug Delivery
Biomedical Engineering
This drug delivery device delivers medication without needle penetration of the skin.
With the pharmaceutical industry focused on localized treatments to avoid systemic side effects and other concerns, the development of specialized drug delivery systems has become very important. SwRI has worked on a variety of drug delivery mechanisms, including:
- Instillation pumps
- Pressure injection
- Needle/microneedles
- Controlled/triggered release
