Abstract

The invention discloses a 3D printed vaginal drug delivery device. The device is prepared through 3D printing, and polymer, medicine, pore former and surface active agent are included. The shape of the device can be selected from an O-shape, a Y-shape, an M shape, a T shape, a V shape, a U shape, a twisted shape, a triangle shape, an anchor shape, and other special shapes designed according to disease demands and personal characteristics. The device is characterized in that an individualized design is adopted, medicine carrying dosage can be adjusted, using is convenient, and the shape and themedicine carrying dosage can be flexibly changed according to the personal characteristics and demands to achieve personalized treatment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical products, in particular to a 3D printed vaginal drug delivery device. Background technique [0002] In conventional gynecological drug administration or prevention, vaginal rings are often used, mainly including metal rings, plastic rings and silicone rubber rings. Metal rings and plastic rings cannot be loaded with medicine and can only achieve the purpose of contraception through mechanical stimulation. Silicone rubber vaginal rings can be used for contraception or treatment of certain diseases by loading some chemical substances, but their types, materials, drugs and dosages are limited by existing technologies and production lines, and basically remain fixed, and cannot be adjusted according to the needs of disease treatment and patients. Its own characteristics are adjusted in time. [0003] 3D printing technology is an additive manufacturing process that can be constructed by computer-aided design s...
