Diabetes affects people of all ages regardless of gender and geographical location. A diabetic patient unlike other diseases may appear healthy and living a normal life under medication. Therefore a tendency of being noncompliant with the medicine especially insulin dosage is observed. One of the reasons of such behavior is that patients find it irritating to use syringes or injections (insulin pens). It results into complications in other body functions such as heart, kidneys, liver and loss of immunity. This research was aimed to design and manufacture a miniature (keychain held) insulin administration device so that patients may carry it along all the time. Most of the devices used in market were reviewed during design process. A unique device was then designed and manufactured with same functionality as others but geometrically half the size of insulin pen. It could therefore provide timely availability of insulin and result in improving the noncompliant behavior of patients.
