Abstract: A drug delivery device having a spring element that provides dispense assistance. The drug delivery device includes a variable dose setting mechanism, a fixed dose setting mechanism, and a mechanical coupling having a spring element. The variable dose setting mechanism is operably coupled to a first reservoir holding a first medicament, and the variable dose setting mechanism comprises a dose setter. The fixed dose setting mechanism is operably coupled to a second reservoir holding a second medicament. The mechanical coupling operably couples the variable dose setting mechanism and the fixed dose setting mechanism. Further, the variable dose setting mechanism is configured to set a variable dose of the first medicament upon activation of the dose setter, and the fixed dose setting mechanism is configured to set a fixed dose of the second medicament during variable dose setting.

Abstract: A drug delivery system to deliver two or more medicaments operable through a auto-injector drug delivery device and a single dispense interface. The device comprises a housing defining a primary reservoir containing a first medicament. A dosing mechanism operably connected to the primary reservoir. A single dispense interface is configured for fluid communication with the primary reservoir and a secondary reservoir of medicament containing at least one drug agent configured for fluid communication to the single dispense interface. A single activation of the dosing mechanism causes medicament from the primary reservoir and a non-user settable dose of the second medicament to be expelled through the single dispense interface.

Abstract: A drug delivery device for co-delivery of two medicaments. The drug delivery device has a dose setter, a first dose dial component, a second dose dial component, and a collar. The first dose dial component is configured to select a first dose of a first medicament, and the first dose dial component is operably connected to the dose setter. The second dose dial component is configured to select a second dose of a second medicament. In addition, the first dose dial component and the second dose dial component are connected to the collar. The collar is configured to be moved in a proximal direction by actuation of the dose setter. Further, when the collar is moved in a proximal direction, the first dose dial component and the second dose dial component are configured to move proximally to set a dose “A” for the first medicament with the first dose dial component and set a dose “B” for the second medicament with the second dose dial component.

Abstract: A medicated module for an injection system to co-deliver at least two medicaments is disclosed where a primary delivery device containing a primary medicament accepts a medicated module containing a single dose of a secondary medicament and where both medicaments are delivered through a hollow needle. The medicated module does not require the user to manually engage a reservoir containing the secondary medicament. Instead, a biasing member automatically activates the reservoir when the needle guard is retracted. The needle guard prevents accidental needle sticks before and after an injection, and locks after dose delivery.

Abstract: An ophthalmic drug delivery device containing a primary medicament reservoir and a replaceable medicated module containing a second medicament where the device has a selector to allow dispense of primary medicament or a combination of the primary and secondary medicaments such that a single activation of the ophthalmic drug delivery will deliver both medicaments to the user.

Abstract: A dedicated needle assembly (300) that can be attached only to a dedicated drug delivery device (400) is disclosed. The dedicated needle assembly (300) comprises a connecting body (320) extending from a distal end to a proximal end. A dedicated mechanical coupling (310) is configured at the proximal end of the connecting body (320). The dedicated mechanical coupling (310) forms a releasable connection to a distal end of the dedicated drug delivery device (400). The dedicated needle assembly (300) may comprise a medicated module or, alternatively, a non-medicated module. In one arrangement, the dedicated mechanical coupling (310) is integral with the dedicated needle assembly (300).

Abstract: A drug delivery device having a trigger biasing member that provides dispense assistance. The drug delivery device includes a variable dose setting mechanism that is operably coupled to a primary reservoir holding a first medicament. The drug delivery device also includes a fixed dose setting mechanism that is operably coupled to a secondary reservoir holding a second medicament. The fixed dose setting mechanism comprises a trigger biasing member or spring. In addition, the drug delivery device includes a mechanical coupling that operably couples the variable dose setting mechanism and the fixed dose setting mechanism. During dose setting, activation of a single dose setter sets a variable dose of the first medicament. Setting of a minimum dose of the first medicament causes a fixed dose of the second medicament to be automatically set, and, during dispense, the trigger spring at least assists with the dispense of the fixed dose of the second medicament.

Abstract: Disclosed is a safety needle assembly has a needle guard that prevents accidental needle sticks before and after an injection. A locking collar rotates during use as an inner protrusion follows three paths of a track located on the outer surface of a body housing. When the inner facing protrusion is in the third path, it encounters a hard stop and a rotational bias that locks the guard from further retraction and, thus, covers the sharp distal end of the needle.
