The Challenge

To create a user centric system that is so simple and intuitive that untrained users can navigate the steps required to successfully prepare a drug solution for dosing at home. The system also is to deliver the drug in user determined doses.

The Solution

MJID explored various drug mixing principles and dosing mechanical configurations. These principals were then matured to provide a safe and simple user experience. This resulted in two ‘tracks’, vertical configuration and a second horizontal direction. The work was done in close collaboration with Medicologic.
