The dose setting limiter includes a stationary first part connected to the housing, and a second part fitted over the rotary dose setting knob, the second part being able to rotate together with the dose setting knob when setting up a dose and the second part being rotational relative to the first part. A third part is placed between the first part and the second part, the third part having means cooperating with means on the second part for limiting the dose setting.
