INTERPHEX and a team of industry experts select Nemera (booth 1636) as winner for this year’s exhibitor awards as Editor’s choice
International Pharmaceutical Expo (INTERPHEX), the premier event dedicated to pharmaceutical and biotechnology innovation, technology, and knowledge from development through commercialization and sponsored by the Parenteral Drug Association (PDA), has announced the winners for the INTERPHEX Exhibitor Awards for 2017.
Nemera was recognized for the ‘Editor’s choice’ for Safelia® .
Safelia® is an innovative autoinjector for prefilled syringes, available for 1 and 2.25 m sizes, suitable for large volume and high viscosity delivery through thinner needles. Safelia® can mechanically “tune” the injection thanks to design adjustments.
It has been designed to ease patients’ self-injection experience and to deliver the most challenging drugs, in subcutaneous or intramuscular layers.
Key benefits of Safelia®
Patient friendly
- No initial injection peak
- Constant delivery flow
- Adjustable needle insertion speed
- Needle insertion disconnected from injection
- Automatic needle retraction
- Possibility to have thinner needles
Syringe friendly
- Syringe is held encapsulated through the barrel
- Syringe front housing
