Abstract: Various exemplary drug delivery devices with multiple drug vials, drug products utilizing the same, and methods of using drug delivery devices with multiple drug vials are provided. In general, a nasal drug delivery device configured to dispense a drug therefrom into a nose and includes two or more vials each containing the drug therein. The drug delivery device is configured to deliver the drug from each of the vials for a total of two or more sprays into the nose. The same drug delivery device may therefore deliver multiple drug sprays to a user. In some embodiments, instead of including two or more vials that collectively contain enough drug therein for more than two drug sprays, the drug delivery device can include a single vial that contains enough drug therein for more than two drug sprays.

Abstract: Various exemplary drug holders (102, 200) for drug delivery devices (100), drug products utilizing the same, and methods of using drug holders for drug delivery devices are provided. In general, a nasal drug delivery device is configured to dispense therefrom at least one dose of a drug therefrom into a nose. The drug delivery device includes a drug holder that contains the drug therein that is delivered out of the drug delivery device. The drug holder can include two cavities (208, 210) therein that are fluidically sealed from one another prior to use of the drug delivery device to cause drug delivery. A first one of the cavities includes the drug therein, and a second one of the cavities includes a drug or air therein.

Abstract: Various exemplary drug delivery devices with lock-out before drug delivery, drug products utilizing the same, and methods of using drug delivery devices with lock-out before drug delivery are provided. In general, a nasal drug delivery device is configured to dispense a drug therefrom into a nose and is configured to be releasably coupled to an accessory. The accessory is a separate, independent member from the drug delivery device such that in its decoupled state, the accessory is completely removed from the drug delivery device.
