## Claims

### Claim 1

A bandage, consisting of:
a first layer (203) of protective covering located as an outer most layer for the bandage and covers one or more nano-sized injectors, wherein the first layer of protective covering is made of a material which can withhold pressure from a tip of the one or more nano-sized injectors (102) and maintains the shape of the one or more nano-sized injectors;
a second layer (201) of covering consists of the one or more nano-sized injectors and a sticky outer layer, wherein the second layer of covering is made of a cloth material;
a third layer (202) of covering, wherein the third layer is the top most layer of the bandage and does not come in contact with the skin;
a cylinder (103) consists of a body and a nozzle (105) wherein the cylinder lays between the second layer and the third layer and covers all four sides of the bandage, wherein the nozzle contains a knob to meter the a medication into the cylinder, wherein the bandage is used for delivering a medication to a localized area on a patient's body; and
a refill (106) contains the medication and delivers the medication by attaching itself to the nozzle of the cylinder.
