Facilimix™ Compounding Solution
Helping you take the strain out of the hospital pharmacy
The risk of developing repetitive strain injury (RSI) is high for hospital pharmacy technicians and nurses.1,2 Risk factors for RSI include repetitive motions, exertion of high or prolonged muscular forces, fast-paced work environment with insufficient rest or recovery time during work or between shifts, and can lead to a decrease in productivity, medical treatment, time off or even disability.3
Facilimix™ is designed to help reduce RSI due to repetition of motions needing to exert some pressure or forces (mixing viscous drugs / filling elastomeric pumps) without compromising patient safety or efficiency of the compounding process.
Facilimix™ Cartridge
The Facilimix™ Cartridge is a dedicated patented* double seal syringe designed for use with the Facilimix™ Compounding Device.
