XStraw - Oral Drug Delivery Device
The xstraw® – the new oral drug delivery device for pellets thanks to innovative technology. The xstraw® provides a new and convinient alternative to drug intake. Especially for children and the elderly, intake method in addition to taste, play an importantn role. At the same time, safe intake and perfect dosage are often the decisive factor.
the intake is based on a pre-portioned drinking straw. This method guarantees a complete and comfortable administration. In geriatrics, the challenges are similar: Difficulty swallowing dominates everyday life, thus jeopardizing compliance. Often the effect and safety of the drug can no longer be ensured, when e.g. classic tablets are ground in order to make them “swallowable” for the elderly.
XStraw® guarantees the exact dosing of active ingredients. Especially drugs which are dosed individually can be produced without difficulty by filling different amounts of bulk material in different doses. Use the XStraw®’s potentials in order to position your product innovatively, and be one step ahead in the market. Plus, create a noticeable added value for the users: simple and convenient intake.
Requirements. Understanding.
For many people, the intake of medication in solid form (for example tablets, capsules,…) is a major challenge. If people help themselves by crushing the tablet or opening the capsule, important components often get lost or the dosage is no longer correct. With XStraw®, the intake process becomes easier for many people (especially in pediatrics, geriatrics and for people with swallowing difficulties or internal blockages). At the same time, it gives the product an innovative platform. Take this opportunity to enter new markets, acquire new customers, and revolutionize the standard processes for drug administration by using the right concept.
We are eager to hear about your ideas and look forward to the challenges as to how we can utilize the XStraw® for your product. Especially the pharmaceutical area offers exciting possibilities.
Simple. Safe.

We look forward to discussing your product application possibilities with you. Please get in touch with us and tell us about your visions and ideas.
AN EASY WAY TO TAKE CORRECTLY DOSED MEDICINE
More than 50 percent of people (young and old) have difficulties with the use of tablets and capsules. Difficulty swallowing, psychological barriers against such formats or taste aversions make it hard for the patients to take the prescribed medication reliably. This is why tablets are crushed, dissolved or otherwise altered. Mostly with the result that active ingredients are lost and the dosing quantity is no longer accurate. XStraw® enables the simple and intuitive intake of the exact dosing quantities – with a beverage and thus a flavor of your choice.

Instead of swallowing bitter pills, taking medicine with the XStraw® becomes a taste experience that the user determines for himself or herself. I drink what I like. In addition, I am taking important drugs in precise doses. A great relief for young and old. For better quality of life.
