How many times have you seen a friend or a relative with diabetes inject themselves with insulin subcutaneously? Overtime they may say they get use to the pain but that's only because they have no other choice but to bare it. What if there was a safer, needle-free way? PharmaJet offers just that.

And it seems like PharmaJet has already been approved for use in the US for sometime. How it works is that the injector uses a new form of technology in which it delivers liquid medications at high speed, creating a "liquid jet" that penetrates the skin and delivers the medicine through the skin in less than 1/3 of a second. Doing exactly what patients today already do but without the needle. The great thing about PharmaJet is that it works as subcutaneous injector as well as intramuscular.

The PharmaJet injector utilizes a single-use, sterile, auto-disable needle-free syringe and a spring-powered energy source that creates an optimal pressure profile. This combination results in a superior injection experience and feeling compared to prior injectors and in fact to needle-bearing syringes themselves.
