What is needle-free jet injection?
Needle-free jet injection is a new technology whereby jet injectors powered by carbon dioxide or springs are used to force, under pressure, the delivery of medication through the skin in a fraction of a second without causing pain. Jet injectors disperse medications more broadly under the skin than conventional needle/syringe injections, thus making drug absorption more rapid.
