Scared of Needles? Fear No More!

A small start up medical company in Colorado developed a device called the PharmaJet, which does not use needles to inject medication or vaccines into the patient's body.


This revolutionary device uses a high speed liquid stream. Though the device does not use needles, there still will be a minor pinch at the time of injection. 

PharmaJet was approved by the FDA in 2009 and is now currently in use in about 10 clinic. Statistics show that over 30% of patients prefer or have tried the PharmaJet system over the traditional needle.

  7. Seems like something useful. If drug addicts could use these then sharing wouldn't be something that spreads HIV.
