Abstract
A rectal administrator comprises a body having an administrative portion adapted to be inserted into a subject's rectum. A charge of medicament is disposed within the body, and the administrative portion has at least one passage through which the medicament can exit the body. A plunger is disposed in the body and is movable from a first position to a second position within the body to dispense the medicament from the body through the at least one passage. A releasable energy source is mounted within the body so as to be released in response to a predetermined actuating procedure. The releasable energy source moves the plunger from the first position to the second position to dispense the medicament from the body through the at least one passage when released in response to the predetermined actuating procedure.
