Needle-free insulin syringe approved for sale

DIABETES patients can expect painless injection of insulin now that the State Food and Drug Administration has approved the sales of the country's first needle-free insulin syringe.

Shaped like a pen, the innovative syringe can press insulin into the body without causing any wound or pain. The whole process is done in just 0.2 seconds.

Because it has no needle, patients are spared of pain and fear. They can do insulin injection themselves at home, thus saving the time and trouble to go to the hospital.
