Autoinjector technology

For many years syringes have been the ‘Cinderella’ of the drug delivery world. The medical and pharmaceutical industries have been continuously modifying existing technology, which has fundamental constraints, instead of starting from scratch and taking a helicopter view of modern technologies available. Many of the current devices on the market have incurred recalls, and known usability and safety issues exist.

Most of the limitations of existing autoinjectors can be traced back to the glass staked-needle syringes used within them, which were never designed for this application.

Oval's technology will revolutionise drug delivery and will provide radical improvements in safety, acceptability and reliability.
