Possible Applications

Hormones
Many patients require regular injections of sensitive biologic drugs such as insulin, which need to be stored in highly stable containers before use. These valuable drugs also need to be stored in containers that are compatible with a wide range of drug delivery systems.
Biologics
The trend to shift biologics drug administration from hospital to home setting with novel injection devices like wearable injectors. Biologic drugs are sensitive and some of them are highly viscous. cartriQ® is designed to cope with the stringent requirements of biologic drug stability and also self-administration of drugs with various injection devices.
Emergency drugs
A number of emergency medical situations such as anaphylaxis require drugs to be administered as quickly as possible. To remain effective, these drugs need to be kept stable in highly accurate doses, in containers with high mechanical strength to cope with the stresses of rapid delivery.
