Abstract
Needle-free injection systems are novel ways to introduce various medicines into patients without piercing the skin with a conventional needle. Needle-free technology offers the very obvious benefit of reducing patient concern about the use of needle. According to Food and drug administration [FDA]: A needle-less or needle free injection is a device used for the parenteral administration of a medicament is disclosed. They can take in the form of power sprays, edible products, inhalers, and skin patches. Needle-free systems are designed to solve these problems making them safer, less expensive, and more convenient. The purpose of current article is to enlighten the advantages and uses of drug delivery using Nanopatch technology. This technology is used to deliver drugs, vaccines, etc. Today, Nanopatch is a developing technology that promises to make the administration of medicine more efficient and there is the obvious attraction that being needle-free, a patch is painless, and does not run the risk of needle-stick injuries, can use easily of its small size, temperature stability also introduces the option of distributing vaccines to parts of the world where “cold chain” infrastructure is unreliable or non-existent.
