U-Piller

The challenge

Due to her involuntary mouth movement, she struggles to take medication orally.

Who it helps

People with involuntary oral movement struggling with daily medicine in-take.

How it works

We are addressing the issue of the involuntary bites with a buffer to preserve the pet-piller syringe.

Our solution is the use of a pet-piller with a wider nozzle for bigger pills, combined with a mouthpiece with a hole for the pet-piller to fit through, preventing the bites from cracking the pet-piller.
