Low blood-sugar for diabetics can become a serious event. In an emergency, a glucose replacement kit can be a lifesaver, but they contain multiple parts, and steps, to administer the glucagon a diabetic may need.

Xeris created the first ever, shelf stable, auto-injector for liquid glucagon. Much like an Epipen, the GVOKE auto-injector can be easily slipped into a bag or purse to always be there when a life-threatening low-blood sugar event happens.

Because diabetes doesn’t discriminate between adults or children, we created animated characters, one for the injector, and one for the diabetic patient, to make usage information easy-to-understand, relay useful tips and information, and portray the scary aspects of a diabetic low in a light and friendly way.
