The Worldwide Need

The Worldwide Need

Solves Strips meets a worldwide need - that has gone undetected for decades.

Some people just don't like taking pills, but alternatively, there are many people in the world who are unable to swallow pills entirely. Children and the elderly are the most common to be known as being pill averse, but a large portion of this need for a pill-alternative hail from other communities. Stroke victims, people with dysphagia, and mentally challenged are some of the people who make up the portion of people who cannot swallow pills as a form of medication.

According to US National Library of MedicineNational Institutes of Health, swallowing problems affect nearly 1 in 25 people in the United States annually.

This revolutionary form of nutrient delivery doesn't just make things more convenient for a lot of people (even though that's a plus!), it has the possibility to change peoples lives. The ability to deliver medicine, supplements, or even just caffeine through a dissolvable strip placed on the tongue meets the dire need amongst this community.
