MIT’s Bill Gates-funded injection could offer years of birth control with just one shot.
Engineers at MIT have made a groundbreaking discovery in the field of injectable drug delivery systems.
They have developed an innovative drug depot that can be injected under the skin, providing a controlled and sustained release of medication over an extended period.
This revolutionary system utilizes drug crystals suspended in a solvent, which forms a compact, long-lasting implant.
The implant slowly releases the medication, eliminating the need for frequent injections and reducing pain and discomfort.
In tests conducted on rats, the system demonstrated stable drug release over three months, with the potential to remain effective for over a year.
This technological advancement has the potential to transform the treatment of various chronic conditions, including HIV and neuropsychiatric disorders, offering patients a more convenient and pain-free experience.
