- an elongated frame comprising two walls substantially parallel to each other comprising tracks;
- a dispensing package at least partially disposed in the elongated frame, comprising a flexible wall, and containing the beneficial agent;
- a fluid transport device communicable with the dispensing package;
- an actuation stem moveably disposed in the elongated frame comprising:
- a proximal end comprising a follower configured to guide the proximal end in the tracks;
- and
- a distal end configured to operate the actuation stem along the elongated frame;
- and
- wherein when the actuation stem is advanced into the elongated frame, the follower moves in the track causing the proximal end to compress the dispensing package, collapsing the flexible wall, and expelling the beneficial agent through the fluid transport device.
