  • Publication number: 20250018131
    Abstract: A medicament delivery device comprising a casing defining a volume for receiving a rupturable container containing a medicament and a propellant, and a needle hub assembly. The needle hub assembly comprises a needle having a longitudinal axis, and a needle hub to which the needle is affixed, wherein the needle hub is engageable with the casing such that the needle extends into the volume for receiving the rupturable container. The needle hub has a profile such that circumferential interference between the needle hub and the casing prevents rotation of the needle hub relative to the casing about an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis when the needle hub is engaged with the casing.
