A medication delivery device, comprising
- a housing;
- a drug container holder arranged at least partly within the housing, wherein the drug container holder is configured to receive a plurality of single dose drug containers, each single dose drug container of the plurality of single dose drug containers configured to contain a liquid;
- and
- an actuator element configured to separately administer a single dose of the liquid from each single dose drug container of the plurality of single dose drug containers.
A medication delivery assembly comprising:
- a plurality of single dose drug containers;
- and
- a medication delivery device comprising:
- a housing;
- a drug container holder arranged at least partly within the housing, wherein the drug container holder is configured to receive the plurality of single dose drug containers, each single dose drug container of the plurality of single dose drug containers configured to contain a liquid;
- and
- an actuator element configured to separately administer a single dose of the liquid from each single dose drug container of the plurality of single dose drug containers through a hollow needle,
- wherein the actuator element is configured to move the hollow needle relative to each single dose drug container of the plurality of single dose drug containers such that the hollow needle penetrates a pierceable portion of each single dose drug container of the plurality of single dose drug containers, and
- wherein each drug container of the single dose drug containers comprise a biasing element configured to bias the actuator element towards a start position in which administration of the single dose is prevented.
A method for manufacturing a medication delivery device, comprising:
- providing a housing,
- arranging a drug container holder at least partly within the housing, wherein the drug container holder is configured to receive a plurality of single dose drug containers, each single dose drug container configured to contain a liquid, and
- mounting an actuator element configured to separately administer a single dose of the liquid from each single dose drug container of the plurality of single dose drug containers.
