Aptar’s Unidose is a single-use, ready-to-use, one-step nasal delivery system used to administer neffy to a patient during a severe allergic reaction. During such an event, the patient, healthcare professional, caregiver or user presses a small plunger on the bottom of the nasal spray system to release the drug in a single spray into the nostril.

Stephan B. Tanda, Aptar President and CEO, stated, “Aptar has been a leader in nasal delivery of medication for more than 30 years. We are proud of our role in the pharma industry to increase the use of nasally delivered medications that help promote adherence and ease of use for patients.”
