Vyteris,
Inc. is a product oriented drug delivery technology company that develops
and manufactures enhanced versions of approved therapeutics using
state of the art, proprietary iontophoresis
(electrotransport) technology.
Our mission is to eliminate the inconvenience, discomfort and fear of taking medication
by providing products that fundamentally improve the medication experience, thereby
promoting better compliance and more productive and comfortable lifestyles.

Our technology uses iontophoresis to deliver drugs painlessly through the skin without
needles or other mechanical devices. It works by inducing a low-level electrical
current that repels or drives a drug with a natural ionic (electric) charge through
the skin. This delivery method offers an alternative to oral, injection and
infusion pump delivery avoiding problems associated with these delivery
methods including:
• systemic side effects and slow onset of oral delivery
• pain, fear and inconvenience of injections
• invasive, inconvenience, and sterility concerns of infusion pumps
• problems of bioavailability and diminished efficacy for many drugs
