Drug delivery
Drug delivery technology involves the methods and systems used to transport a pharmaceutical compound to its target site in the body effectively and safely. Examples include controlled-release capsules, transdermal (through-skin) patches, and injection devices (like insulin pens or auto-injectors). Drug delivery innovations can greatly improve a therapy’s efficacy or patient experience, and patents are essential for their protection.
Many jurisdictions, including the UK, have particular legal rules that relate to the patenting of medical treatment technologies. This means that patenting drug delivery inventions must be done with care and precision to ensure compliance with the various rules and to give you the strongest protection possible for your invention.
At Dolleymores, our expert and experienced patent attorneys regularly prosecute patents worldwide, and are used to drafting patents to work around the various legal requirements concerning medical-related technology that exist around the world. We are thus well positioned to help you protect your drug delivery inventions in the way that’s best for you and your commercial interests. A few examples of the technology areas we have worked in include:
- Syringes.
- Dosage controlled dispensers.
- Peristaltic pumps.
