How it works
The PharmaJet needle-free system delivers liquid medications at high speed, creating a "liquid jet" that penetrates the skin and delivers the medicine through the skin in less than 1/3 of a second.

PharmaJet's needle-free injection technology is different than gas-powered technologies of the past.
Jet injection to deliver liquid medications has existed in various forms since the 1860s. In the 1950s the U.S. military developed their own high-speed models, or "jet guns", for mass vaccination programs. Common features of such historic jet injectors were gas-powered energy sources combined with a multi-use nozzle interface. Both of these features led to inherent delivery problems, ranging from skin laceration to cross-contamination with blood-borne pathogens between patients. Such "multi-use nozzle jet injectors" or MUNJIs as they were known were eventually banned in 19971 due to these inherent problems.
The PharmaJet system utilizes a single-use, sterile, auto-disable needle-free syringe and a spring-powered energy source that creates an optimal pressure profile. This combination results in a superior injection experience and feeling compared to prior injectors and in fact to needle-bearing syringes themselves.2
Less Expensive by Design
The PharmaJet system is not only different from needle and syringe systems, it is also different from other needle-free systems.
Our patented needle-free injector system uses a novel spring system. It requires no outside power source to operate.
It is durable and will perform thousands of injections. It can be disinfected and cleaned using standard medical disinfectants and cleaning solutions.
The single-use disposable syringe is made of medical grade polypropylene, the same material used in most standard needle syringes. The resulting product not only costs less, but is durable and compatible with liquid and lyophilized medications. The syringe can be filled at the time of injection from single or multi-dose standard vials with a PharmaJet vial adapter.
It's easy to train users or health-care givers and the PharmaJet system is already being used in high throughput immunization settings.
