The Significant Advantages Of Utilizing No Needle Injector

By Jose Hughes


The NFIT or the needle free injection technology is a type of concept where in the drug is being delivered into the skin through the use of any forces which include Shock waves, Lorentz, or electrophoresis that will propel the drugs through a persons skin. This new technology may not only benefit the pharma industries but will also develop and make it more useful specifically for immunization programs, avoiding the injuries, and also avoiding some other complications.

The devices can be classified according to their delivery site, delivery mechanism of a drug, load, and working. For administering an effective, stable, and safe dose by utilizing this no needle injector, the 3 important components need to be considered and the components are the viscosity, sterility, and shelf life of a drug. The devices of NFIT are manufactured in many ways and the commonly used way is molding technique.

Unlike those traditional syringes, these devices have other forms which can be reusable. One of the purposes of this technology is to ensure a painless and efficient delivery of drugs. The following are the other important advantages of a needle free injection rather than a needle based syringe.

First is making the patients accept it more without complaints. Most patients have aversions on needles and they often think on physical discomforts that they may be experiencing. An advantage here is to reduce their feeling of discomfort and pain. And also, their experiences might be improved, thus, having the courage to push other patients in presenting themselves for therapy.

Second is decreasing the risk of vein penetration and delivering the medication into the unintended site. The techniques that are being applied when delivering the medications into the desired sites with the use of needles and syringes will depend on the proper selection of needles. And it also depends on the skills of a healthcare worker.

Third, it improves the efficacy due to having many ways on how drugs are being distributed. Typically, syringes are going to deposit the drugs to the desired sites or areas within the tissues. The only disadvantage here is the possibility of delays during the deposit since dispersion is lacking for the tissues and because of this, a number of injections may be added to reach other areas.

Fourth is enhancing the response of vaccine immune. The needle free injection is said to have the ability of enhancing the immunogenicity which is composed of commercial vaccines and also vaccines which are under certain developments currently. Fifth is the differences of the used techniques and also the reliability. This is reliable since the penetration depth can easily be determined rather than seeing it based on needle syringe technique.

Sixth is the removal of these needles risks and the prevention of contamination of those unintended sites. A needles safety is becoming a high concern for the patients, hospitals, and healthcare professionals. Healthcare professionals that have previous experiences on injuries of these needles often have felt emotional distress, fear, and anxiety.

And lastly is the management of safety and waste of injection. Even if most healthcare systems are continuing to do a better and stronger training for people, challenges still cannot be avoided specifically for medical waste and contaminated needles. These problems are exposing the patients, communities, and health workers.
