Market Trends

The safety & Prefilled Syringes are the syringes which are filled at the time of manufacturing and packaging instead of drug administration. Most of the time products come in glass vessel or ampoule & it is withdrawn into syringe when administration is required and then injected in patient. To avoid lack of convenience, accuracy, affordability, safety, sterility, etc., these Prefilled Syringes are now used. These syringes are used to deliver parenteral medications and are single dose packet of parenteral drug in which a needle is fixed by a manufacturer. These Prefilled Syringes are ready to use disposable syringes that contain premeasured dosage to reduce dosing errors and increase dosing accuracy, patient compliance, convenience and safety, also to enhance patient quality of life & reduce patient time in the clinic. They are more convenient devices for the delivery of parenteral medications. They are small in size which makes them easy to carry and are dependable for delivering a precise dose of medication. Prefilled Syringes provide various advantages for the manufacturer, physician and patient over conventional method of parenteral drug delivery. Some of these advantages are such as accuracy, sterility, convenience, affordability and safety.

Some of the Major Trends of the Global Safety & Prefilled Syringe Market are:

 Self-Administration:

Pre-filled safety syringes are not only safer than those without needle protection but are also more convenient and they are well-adapted to the self-administration trend. In particular, retracting needle mechanisms used in pre-filled safety syringes and auto-injectors allow both ease-of-use and safety device requirements to be met all at once, while also potentially reducing the risk of dosage errors. By allowing older, weakened and less-dextrous patients to securely hold & operate the device without any assistance, these instruments contribute for providing patients with the independence that comes with self-administration, whereas for reducing the risks associated with unsupervised self-care.

COP Prefilled Syringes:

The material used for the safety & Prefilled Syringes is a high performance polymer called Cyclic Olefin Polymer (COP). It is suitable for use as a primary packaging for sophisticated medications, especially for biosimilars, sensitive biologicals and biobetters, but also for e.g. hyaluronic acid applications. These COP polymer syringes are widely used & these are distinguished by a high degree of break resistance and a glass-like transparency. COP discharges no alkali ions that mean that the risk of a pH value shift is eliminated. Subsequently the entire plastic syringes which include the insert-molded needle is produced in a single step, hence the polymer syringes become free of tungsten & adhesives. Its production with injection molding process enables flexible designs even customer-specific designs are possible. In comparison to glass, more precise production tolerances are possible with COP Prefilled Syringes. This makes a higher degree of customized solutions possible. For example; when a lower remaining volume is required, high-quality cyclic olefin polymers (COP) such as the Daikyo Crystal Zenith syringe systems are designed to overcome challenges of glass syringes and to add value to sensitive biologics. This includes the absence of silicone oil in Daikyo Crystal Zenith syringes & it results in decreased interaction with the drug product and enhanced cleanliness. These polymer syringes present attractive benefits that are gaining increased attention from manufacturers seeking new answers to the drug delivery and administration challenges. This is through break resistance, superior functional performance, highly reduced extractables and leachables, and the availability of many sterile formats.

Plajex – a Silicone Oil-Free Pre-Filled Syringe:

The PLAZX syringe is a barrel of a syringe used to be used as a medical medicine container. It is manufactured by Terumo Manufacturing only as an empty pre-fillable syringe component which will be processed by further pharmaceutical companies as per their filling requirements. This PLAX is a polymer pre-filament syringe specially formulated for the use of biopharmaceuticals. Its design and production method is also unique, using silicone oil free and autoclave disinfection. This contributes to the reduction of risks such as aggregation and oxidation of biopharmaceuticals. This device is designed to meet the needs of a wide variety of drugs requiring low reactive containers. It provides low feedback in Cyclo olefin polymer (COP) with 1 mL long, stacked needle with low sub-visible particles, proteins, excellent strength and clarity, and can be sterilized for ready-filled nest presentation. It is a ready-to-fill format, silicone oil free, tungsten free, glue free, high resistance to breaks and autoclave advantage.

Dual Chamber Prefilled Syringes:

The dual chamber Prefilled Syringe is used to store a large amount of organic matter or active medicinal ingredients that may not be stable for extended periods of time. This syringe enables to prevent drug damage by maintaining drug sterility before injection. Advances in technology have improved the arrangement of liquid components in syringes and injectors, and patients are more attracted to choose a safer and more efficient syringe. These prefill dual chamber syringe devices can improve long-term (bio) pharmaceutical stability by storing them in freeze-dried form before administration and are therefore becoming more popular for those volatile (bio) pharmaceutical products. It is glue-free to eliminate the risk of interaction with drug products and cannot be reused which makes it safe to dispose of. The development of DCDs for drug and flush solutions instead of catheters seems to be an important step in facilitating better clinical practices in many hospitals. Catheters prevent patient complications such as phlebitis or infection and make it easier for medical staff.
