Drug delivery devices are described that provide hybrid forms with optional gripping functionalities. For example, the devices can include a grip portion on a skin contact surface with a release liner disposed thereon. A user can operate the devices with the release liner disposed on the grip portion or can remove the release liner so that the grip portion is able to aid users in orienting and supporting the device during an injection operation.

Hybrid drug delivery devices with optional grip portion and related method of preparation

Drug delivery devices are described that provide hybrid forms with gripping and stability functionalities, such as a grip portion on a skin contact surface. In some versions, the drug delivery devices can include a cep having a release liner such that removal of the cap exposes the grip portion. In some versions, the drug delivery devices include a retractable needle guard having the grip portion extending therearound.

Hybrid drug delivery devices with grip portion

Drug delivery devices and related arrangements are disclosed. A drug delivery device may include a housing having an opening, a drug storage container including a delivery member with an insertion end configured to extend at least partially through the opening, and a plunger. A drive mechanism may be included for driving the plunger in a distal direction to expel a drug from the drug storage container through the delivery member upon activation. The drug delivery device may additionally include a guard moveably disposed adjacent to the opening and operably coupled to the drive mechanism for activation of the drive mechanism. A lock may be selectively engageable with the guard to limit movement of the guard in the proximal direction. An indicator may be coupled to the drive mechanism to generate an audible signal during drug delivery, and to cease generating the audible signal when drug delivery is complete.

Drug delivery device

Delivery devices for administering drugs are disclosed. An example apparatus, includes a body including: a handle in which a syringe assembly is to be disposed; a base having a bottom face to be disposed adjacent a user; and an absorbent material attached to the bottom face, the absorbent material structured to hold a fluid to be released onto the user prior to or during an injection procedure.

Delivery devices for administering drugs

A wearable drug delivery device includes an injector having a housing, a reservoir, a needle or cannula, a drive mechanism for urging drug product out of the reservoir, through the needle or cannula, and to a patient, and an activator mechanism disposed on a surface of the housing for activating the drive mechanism. An activation prevention mechanism is coupled to the injector housing and/or activation prevention mechanism to prevent inadvertent actuation of the activator mechanism.
