Medical Instill Technologies (MedInstill) was founded in 1986 by Daniel Py, MD, ScD. Dr. Py was a Director of Research at
Merck and responsible for ophthalmic product development. MedInstill was founded to create and commercialize inventions
focused on the development of topical drug delivery devices to:
•
Ensure that multiple doses remain stable and contamination-free
•
Enhance therapeutic efficacy
•
Increase patient compliance through ease-of-use
In a phrase, MedInstill develops and commercializes topical drug delivery devices that can provide pharmaceutical
companies and patients “A Dose of Confidencesm”.
Traditional packaging for topical formulations presents significant constraints, reducing the value of the product:
•
Reliance on potentially harmful preservatives to enable period of use
•
Allows contamination, oxidation and degradation of the product
•
Limited enhancement for the consumer experience
MedInstill has developed a series of advanced packages and topical drug delivery devices intended to address the problems
with traditional packaging. At the heart of MedInstill’s devices is a patented one-way visco-elastic valve. This valve is
unique and designed to dispense product while acting as a non-contamination mechanism. Formulation can exit while
nothing can enter back into the device, whether it is air, bacteria or contaminants that may be harmful to the product or
patient. MedInstill’s designs:
•
Offer controlled and metered dosing to improve compliance and consumer experience
•
Have clean applicator tips for direct application of the formulation
•
Maintain product integrity from the first to the last dose.
Pen-Instill: Highly flexible and scalable, metered dose device for general dispensing or direct application to the affected
area. It offers flexibility for volumes as well as style and branding while utilizing the one-way visco-elastic valve.
Valve-Tube: For higher volume requirements, MedInstill has improved the ubiquitous squeeze tube with the one-way viscoelastic valve. Formulation integrity is protected and shelf-life extended for a wide variety of products.
Crème Jar: Elegant design utilizing the one-way visco-elastic valve to emulate the use and feel of a traditional cream jar
while preventing the consumer to place fingers directly into the jar. A unique way to prevent contamination.
