In an embodiment, an injection simulation device is provided including a housing defining a channel, the housing comprising a proximal end and a distal end, a plunger comprising a plunger rod body having a proximal end and a distal end and a stopper disposed at the distal end of the plunger rod, the plunger movable proximally and distally within the channel; and a friction feature associated with the housing, the friction feature for interfacing with the plunger rod, wherein the plunger moves in a distal direction relative to the housing to simulate medicament delivery and in a proximal direction to reset the injection simulation device, wherein the friction feature optionally causes differential resistance on the plunger rod, when the plunger rod moves in either the distal or proximal direction.

A drive assembly for a medication delivery device is provided, comprising a piston rod which is movable from a start position to an end position for medication delivery and resettable from the end position to the start position. The drive assembly further comprises an impeding element for impeding a movement of the piston rod from the end position to the start position during a reset of the piston rod, wherein the impeding element comprises at least one resilient element. Furthermore, a medication delivery device comprising the drive assembly is disclosed.

Embodiments including an injection device having a housing with an outer surface, an inner surface, a proximal end and a distal end, and a defining a chamber extending between the proximal end and the distal end are provided herein. The device may include a plunger having a first end and a second end, the plunger being movable proximally and distally within the chamber of the housing, the plunger comprising a plunger rod extending from the first end to the second end of the plunger; and a plunger limiting mechanism configured to interface with the plunger rod, to limit the proximal movement of the plunger and prevent removal of the plunger from the housing.

A mechanism for preventing setting of a dose, which exceeds the amount of a medicament in a reservoir in an injection device. The device can contain a threaded piston rod, a limiter and a driver. The three elements can be arranged such that during dose setting, the limiter is moved towards an end-of-content position, wherein dose setting is limited. The invention contains an accumulative and a non-accumulative embodiment. The invention further relates to a mechanism for preventing ejection of a dose exceeding the set dose.

A drug delivery device comprises a first component and a second component, wherein a substance is provided on at least one of the first component and the second component. An inner friction of the substance is great enough to stabilize at least one of the orientation and the position of the first component and the second component with respect to one another. The inner friction of the substance is small enough to allow relative movement of the first component and the second component necessary for the intended operation of the device. Furthermore, a method for assembling a drug delivery device is provided.

Flush syringe assemblies capable of creating pulsatile movement of the plunger rod as it moves in the distal direction within a syringe barrel, while preventing overpressurization of the catheter are provided. An exemplary flush syringe assembly includes a syringe barrel with a first pulsing element and a chamber with flush solution, a plunger rod with a stopper and a second pulsing element that interacts with the first pulsing element to provide an engagement force that causes pulsatile movement of the plunger rod and a thumb press slidably attached to the plunger rod with a pulse control element. The pulse control element is compressible to create a compression force that is greater than the engagement force of the first pulsing element and the second pulsing element.

The present invention relates a botulinum toxin prefilled syringe system with desirable injection force characteristics, in particular low gliding force and low break loose force, comprising a syringe barrel of glass containing a liquid botulinum toxin composition, a plunger stopper and a closure device such as a tip cap or a needle shield. In addition, the present invention relates to a kit comprising the botulinum toxin prefilled syringe system, and optionally instructions for use, and to the use of the botulinum toxin prefilled syringe system in therapeutic and cosmetic applications.

A rolling diaphragm syringe for receiving a medical fluid therein, the rolling diaphragm syringe comprising a sidewall that is flexible and rolls upon itself when acted upon by the piston such that an outer surface of the sidewall is rolled in a radially inward direction as the piston is advanced from the proximal end to the distal end, and wherein at least a portion of an inner surface of the flexible sidewall comprises at least one surface texturization feature.

A device to prevent prefilled syringe and disposable syringes from accidental separation and unwanted waste of medication. A backflow preventor allows either a prefilled medication vial or syringe plunger to pass through the clip provided as deformable protrusion or twist lock into a track which prevents the plunger or vial from separating from the syringe.

In an embodiment, an injection simulation device is provided including a housing defining a channel, the housing comprising a proximal end and a distal end, a plunger comprising a plunger rod body having a proximal end and a distal end and a stopper disposed at the distal end of the plunger rod, the plunger movable proximally and distally within the channel; and a friction feature associated with the housing, the friction feature for interfacing with the plunger rod, wherein the plunger moves in a distal direction relative to the housing to simulate medicament delivery and in a proximal direction to reset the injection simulation device, wherein the friction feature optionally causes differential resistance on the plunger rod, when the plunger rod moves in either the distal or proximal direction.
