Scientists develop needle-free syringe using shock waves, promising painless drug delivery.

Researchers at IIT Bombay created a needle-free syringe using shock waves that deliver drugs painlessly and with less skin damage than traditional needles. This innovation could help people with needle phobia and frequent injectors like diabetes patients. The syringe, effective in tests on rats, uses high-pressure waves to penetrate the skin without pain, reducing infection risks and promoting faster healing.
