Vivera expanded ts license for TABMELT technology to Israel, the company announced. TABMELT provides sublingual drug delivery.
The sublingual delivery route may lead to more instantaneous and accurate absorption than oral drug delivery for specific drugs because it largely bypasses the GI tract and first-pass metabolism in the liver, both significant sites of oral drug metabolism.
