The correct and desired dose is obtained by dosing a specific number of tablets, dispensed by using the electronic dosing device, “MyFID®”. The dispenser has a built-in alarm, delivers doses at preset times and records all doses delivered and also disease symptoms using easy-to-use scales.
The dispenser is CE marked and the company’s first product, Flexilev®, for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, is approved in thirteen European countries. Since mid-2017, Sensidose has been marketing the system in Sweden, Denmark and Norway.
