Uses an airless metering dispenser with EasyFoil aluminium pouch

Lablabo of France has developed a high-performance airless pack for Azur Pharma’s Elestrin hormonal replacement therapy, which has been launched in the US following approval by the US Food and Drug Administration.

Lablabo’s pack consists of a Sillage airless metering dispenser with an EasyFoil aluminium pouch.

Made of an aluminium and polyethylen multilayer foil, this new pouch is said to ensure maximum protection of the product inside against oxygen and UV rays. Its cylindrical shape guarantees high restitution rates (up to 98% of the product delivered) and easy filling with basic equipment, the firm says.

The metering pump delivers a constant and precise dose of 0.92ml.

The Elestrin sales pack used by the Irish pharmaceutical firm includes two 38ml Sillage airless metering dispensers for a two-month treatment.

Lablabo, based in Annemasse, says it has Drug Master Files (DMFs) registered with the FDA for all of it products and received ISO 15378 certification last December.
