Abstract
A drug delivery device may include a housing having an opening and a drug storage container having a body portion with a proximal end and a distal end and a delivery member extending from the distal end of the body portion. The device may also include a plunger moveable toward the distal end of the drug storage container to expel a drug from the drug storage container through the delivery member and a plunger biasing member configured to urge the plunger toward the distal end of the drug storage container. The device may further include a container holder configured to support the drug storage container with respect to the housing such that a resultant force acting on the drug storage container from the plunger biasing member is at least substantially completely borne by the distal end of the body portion of the drug storage container.
