Injections are currently the gold-standard for administrating various medications parenterally. The most significant side-effect related to injections is the accompanying pain. Injection pain is related to the penetration of the skin by the needle and to the mechanical and chemical effects of the drug during and after its injection. This pain remains a major obstacle in medication administration in children as well as in other populations subject to needle-phobia because of the pain experience. The associated pain may thus prevent optimized medical care for these patients.
