This is not a patch. This "patch technology" is utilizing micro needlesNo where near the level of TechnoVax and MannKind. Try again?

And this "smart patch" also utilizes micro needles. The 'micro needles' (which are actually made of the vaccine / drug itself, and dissolve in the skin) appear to be total a non-issue. "It was really simple. It’s kind of like a band-aid almost." "It’s not like a shot at all. If I had to describe it is maybe like pressing down on the hard side of Velcro. It is like a bunch of little teeny tiny stick things that you can feel but it’s not painful." "The trial showed that people could use the patch without any help and liked it." The volunteers "got so disappointed if they got the regular influenza vaccine ... They were into being part of the new vaccine gadget." Try again?

Someday a patch for basal to go with your Afrezza with meals. Needles are needless.

Someday a patch for basal to go with your Afrezza with meals. Needles are needless. I wonder what ever became of Al's basal patch pump. "AFREZZA® will significantly improve care for early stage type 2 diabetics and along with the PerQFlo basal patch pump will more effectively treat type 1 and later type 2 diabetes." aemf.org/item/story-of-alfred-mann/

I also read posts on this board about how current injected insulin whether it be from a syringe and needle or pen, is "totally not painful", yet majority of PWD that use both of those disagree. This is just another attempt to keep needles in business. Injectable insulins already cause numerous problems, "micro needles" won't solve their problems.

These groups are doing nothing but trying to copy MannKind and TechnoVax with "cheaper", "self-administered" therapies, and reducing the burden of pain. There is already a solution and it involves zero needles. Why do you want needles to be used so badly?
Quotes from both of ya'lls sources:
• Smart Insulin Patch
• Flu Patch
That IS an adverse event. Disinfo. Campaign?
I don't know anyone that would want micro needles "dissolved" into their blood stream. Good luck.

The 'micro-needles' patches (which are not really needles in the traditional sense) would absolutely decimate the needles business as it is today.

This is literally needless when you can inhale a formulation that uses an inert carrier, with zero additives. What do dissolvable micro needles use? Polymers? Glue? Dextrin?
