Releef Initiative's Drug Dispenser

Filed under: Medicine , Pediatrics

Nectar Design, a Long Beach, California design firm, has been working with The Releef Initiative, a "non-profit pharmaceutical corporation" whose mission is to "develop innovative healthcare products that reduce mortality from child infections." The two organizations jointly developed a dispenser that allows "health workers to simply put in the correct amount of pellets and give them directly to the child." The idea is to simplify drug distribution among patients with the help of a cheap device, and to reduce medication errors.
