### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The medical device of claim 7, wherein the first fluid and the second fluid are different types of medicaments.

### Claim 9 (depends on 7)

The medical device of claim 7, wherein the one or more channels includes a first channel for carrying the first fluid and a second channel for carrying the second fluid, and wherein the first fluid and the second fluid are delivered separately to the body of the user.

### Claim 10 (depends on 7)

The medical device of claim 7, wherein the one or more channels includes a first channel for carrying the first fluid and a second channel for carrying the second fluid, and wherein the first channel and the second channel join together inside of the medical device to form a combined channel, such that the first fluid and the second fluid are carried together in the combined channel.
