Abstract
A transdermal drug delivery apparatus includes a receptacle having a housing and a microneedle assembly mounted to the housing. The apparatus includes a reservoir for being mounted to the receptacle. The reservoir has an interior for containing fluid for being supplied to the microneedle assembly. The apparatus is adapted so that, when the apparatus is assembled, the reservoir is configured to move relative to the microneedle assembly along a path from an outer position to an inner position. The reservoir is closer to the microneedle assembly in the inner position than in the outer position. In the outer position, the reservoir is out of fluid communication with the microneedle assembly, and in the inner position, the reservoir is in fluid communication with the microneedle assembly. The apparatus also includes a plurality of connector parts spaced apart from one another along the path.
