OUR MISSION

Free from daily injections

TOP MESSAGE

The possibilities for UFB water are endless.

Pharstoma Corporation was established with the aim of using UFB water to benefit society to its fullest potential. We hope to greatly improve the lives of people living in our society.

The first target is to turn an injectable drug into an oral drug, which was previously considered impossible, and this will be achieved by taking advantage of the characteristics of UFB.

First, we make oral insulin pills. For diabetics who need insulin therapy, frequent injections are a heavy burden.

Our primary goal is to develop an oral formulation that can be administered by injection and significantly reduce the pain and burden of diabetic patients.

By the way, used needles for insulin injections are classified as home health care waste. They must be taken home even when injected outside the home. Their disposal must follow the rules of the local government. This is a burden for patients and their families. In addition, there is the risk of infection due to needle-stick accidents by cleaning workers. Eliminate all of these concerns by eliminating the millions of used insulin needles that are injected in each home every day.

This is also linked to SDG Goal 12 “Responsibility to Create, Responsibility to Use”. We aim to reduce home healthcare waste.
