Blauvelt, NY, September 10, 2009 — Schreiner MediPharm, a Germany-based global provider of specialty pharmaceutical labeling solutions for over 50 years, recently developed specialty adhesive labels that easily adhere to the plastic substrates and curved surfaces of pens and autoinjectors, devices increasingly used by patients, such as diabetics, for self-injection.
