About
Disposable Electronic Capsule for side-effect-free treatment of Crohn's Disease.
PhotoPill Medical developed an electronic, disposable, non-medicinal capsule that uses Photo-Bio Modulation treatment (PBMt) for the manipulation of gut-microbiota, thus providing potential treatment for multiple gut-microbiota affected conditions. PhotoPill's IBD-Cap is the first product and is a disposable, ingestible electronic capsule designed to deliver PBM therapy for reduction of flare-ups by treating ulcerations and inflammation caused by inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), ulcerative colitis, and Crohn's disease. The PhotoPill capsule is fully autonomous and does not require a preparation procedure, external guidance, or imaging of the treated area.
