A prepackaged injectable pharmaceutical composition includes a sealed outer package made of a material having a low oxygen transmission rate and an inner package disposed within the sealed outer package. The inner package is configured to provide an indication that the inner package has been opened after being closed. A prefilled syringe is disposed within the inner package. The syringe includes a barrel comprising a polymeric material and a dose of the injectable pharmaceutical composition.

Methods, assays, compositions and kits for the ligation of short polynucleotides are presented herein. The short polynucleotides are optionally no more than 7 nucleotides in length, and can be as short as 3 or 4 nucleotides in length. The ligation is optionally performed by CV ligase.

The invention relates to an auto injector, by which a fixed dose of a medicament can be injected as self-treatment, and by which needle exposure to an accessible position, injection of the medicament and retraction of the needle to an inaccessible position is automatically performed as a continuous sequence, after the auto injector is triggered. The invention provides solutions to improve the functionality of the retraction of the needle and the general experience of the use.

In a syringe, which is a prefilled syringe, when a cap body is attached to a cylindrical portion, a first sealing section is compressed radially inward by an inner peripheral surface constituting an opening of the cylindrical portion, thereby sealing a distal end section of a flow path in a liquid-tight manner, and a second sealing section is compressed radially inward by an inner peripheral surface of a proximal end section of the cylindrical portion, thereby sealing a proximal end section of the flow path in a liquid-tight manner.

A liquid formulation of an ophthalmic drug in a pharmaceutical package, for example a syringe, cartridge, or vial, made in part or in whole of a thermoplastic polymer, coated on the interior with a tie coating or layer, a barrier coating or layer, a pH protective coating or layer, and optionally a lubricity coating or layer.

Aspects and embodiments of the present invention generally include a device for patient self-administration of a prescribed medication. The device makes available for administration the precise quantity of medication constituting a dose at times designated by a health care provider (HCP). Preferably, the device also detects and transmits information to a remote management system accessible to the HCP, including detected attempts to tamper with the device. Advantageously, HCPs may render oversight and control over the device and its use to mitigate risks associated with patients self-administering medication without in-person supervision. This control may include establishing prerequisites the patient must meet prior to a dose being made available, or remote deactivation of the device. This oversight by the HCP may include patient-specific and aggregate data analysis for optimization of treatment or evaluation of the safety and efficacy of a treatment. Furthermore, this oversight may be conducted via a web-based interface.

A medicament delivery system, including a medicament container and a delay mechanism that is activated prior to completion of medicament delivery from the medicament container. The delay mechanism automatically activates a subsystem or initiates an operation subsequent to completion of medicament delivery.

The present disclosure refers to an injection device including a housing containing a dose setting mechanism, a cartridge holder containing a cartridge with a medicament, and a heat shrinkable label which includes information and/or symbols about the medicament. The injection device is a disposable injection device with the cartridge holder inseparably locked to the housing. The heat shrinkable label is heat shrunk on the housing and the cartridge holder such that it at least partially covers the housing and the cartridge holder.

The present invention provides a method for generating an immune response in a subject, comprising administering to the subject's skin an immunizing composition from a SARS-CoV-2 pathogen, wherein the composition is administered with a microneedle delivery device.

Devices, systems, and methods are provided herein for delivering medication (e.g., insulin) via a wearable pump having a patch-style form factor for adhesion to a user’s body. The reusable pump may be coupled to a disposable cap housing a microdosing system for delivering precise, repeatable doses of medication to a cannula configured to deliver medication to a target infusion area beneath the user’s outer skin layer. The system further may include an applicator for inserting the cannula into the user’s skin and/or applying an adhesive pad to the skin.
