  • Publication number: 20250186700
    Abstract: A device for administering a medicinal liquid by injection is provided. The device comprises a dose assembly comprising collapsible reservoir. The device further includes at least one actuator element onto which the user may apply a force to actuate the device, the force having a component along an axis perpendicular to a longitudinal axis; and a housing comprising a septum. The at least one actuator element is configured and arranged to act on at least a portion of a dose assembly and the at least one actuator element and dose assembly are configured and arranged such that the needle is displaceable along the longitudinal axis and/or in an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis in response to an actuation force so that a portion of the needle moves from an interior to an exterior of the housing and device to allow for dispensation of the medicinal liquid.
