چکیده
Due to an increase of chronic diseases such as diabetes and cancer, a rising number of patients require injectable drugs for self-administration. Prefilled syringes enable highly accurate dosing and decrease the exposure to potent products while, at the same time, they significantly reduce the danger of dosing errors and contribute to overall patient safety. As a result, the market for prefilled syringes is set for further growth. According to a recent market report,1 worldwide production of prefilled syringes will almost double again by 2020.
