Would you trade a shot for a pinch? A recent MedicalXpress article discussed a new drug delivery method that uses temporal pressure to create short term changes in the skin barrier, making it better at receiving medicine. A team of researchers in Singapore published a paper in Science Advances illustrating how using two magnets to pinch and apply pressure to skin creates temporary “micropores” that allows superficially applied drugs to diffuse more easily.

The innovative system allows drugs to diffuse through the skin 6x more efficiently.
