The invention relates to a pre-filled syringe, an auto-injector device comprising such pre-filled syringe, a method of administering a pharmaceutical composition with such auto-injector device, and a manufacturing method for such auto-injector device. The pre-filled syringe comprises a container and a needle. The container is filled with a pharmaceutical composition comprising epinephrine, a buffer, and water. The buffer is configured to buffer in a pH range between 3 and 4. The needle is adhered to the container by means of a urethane acrylate or urethane methacrylate acrylic light cure adhesive, which is configured to provide a pull out resistance of the needle relative to the container which is between 30 N to 100 N, preferably between 50 N to 70 N, more preferably greater than 60 N after 90 days exposure to the pharmaceutical composition at 40 C. and 75% relative humidity (RH). In an example, the pharmaceutical composition is for the treatment of an anaphylactic event.

A handheld injection device includes a housing containing a cartridge, a dose setting means being operable in a first direction to set a desired dose to be dispensed, a piston rod being adapted to cooperate with a piston so as to cause a set dose to be injected from the cartridge, and a first clicker component, which is largely rotationally constrained to the housing, and a second clicker component, which is rotatable relative to the housing during dose dispensing. The clicker components are adapted to contact each other only at the end of dispensing of a set dose to thereby provide an audible and/or tactile first feedback to a user. The first clicker component is displaceable relative to the housing between a proximal dose setting position and a distal dose dispensing position.

A fluid dispenser device having a reservoir (10) containing fluid; a dispenser head (20) provided with a dispenser orifice (21); and a piston (45; 70) for dispensing at least a portion of the fluid through the dispenser orifice (21). The reservoir (10) is closed in leaktight manner by a closure element (25) before actuation. The device includes a passage (40) for connecting the reservoir (10) to the dispenser orifice (21) during actuation, the passage (40) including a hollow sleeve (41) that is stationary relative to the dispenser head (20), for sliding around the closure element (25) during actuation, so as to open the passage (40).

The present invention relates to a syringe and medical kit, which allow for doses of epinephrine of 0.15 mg or 0.15 mL, 0.3 mg or 0.3 mL, and 0.5 mg or 0.5 mL, the most commonly prescribed doses which are utilized today in treating anaphylaxis or other allergic reactions. Currently, existing syringes may include many markings of ten or more dosages. Although these prior art syringes are useful, it is difficult to use them for a patient who must quickly identify a correct dose level among many other marks. The above problem can be addressed by a syringe design which has only a few dosage markings, which correspond to commonly used standard dosages for children and adults. When used with a standard concentration of 1:1000 epinephrine solution, such a device can rapidly provide a known quantity of medicine to a patient who is in urgent need of it.

A method includes moving an actuation lock of a medical injector from a first position to a second position. The actuation lock has an extended portion disposed between a shoulder of a housing and the base when the actuation lock is in the first position. The extended portion is spaced apart from the base when the actuation lock is in the second position. A distal end portion of a base, which is movably coupled to an end portion of the housing, is placed into contact with a body. The base is actuated after the placing to release an energy from an energy storage member within the housing to produce a force to move a needle from a first needle position to a second needle position. At least a portion of the needle extends through the base when the needle is in the second needle position.

An auto-injector device including a syringe, a needle arranged in the vicinity of a first end of the syringe, and a plunger arranged within the syringe. A volume within the syringe between the plunger the needle accommodates medicine, such that movement of the plunger toward the needle dispenses medicine through the needle. A selection assembly configurable by a user to adjust an amount of medicine dispensed by the auto-injector device and depth to which the medicine is delivered. Also, a method for treating a skin lesion or skin disorder utilizing the auto-injector and a kit for patient administered treatment.

An injection device (10) comprises an injection solution receptacle (30) and a plunger (70) at least a portion of which is slidably received in the injection solution receptacle (30), wherein the plunger (70) is displaceable relative to the injection solution receptacle (30) in a distal direction in order to expel an injection solution contained in the injection solution receptacle (30) from the injection solution receptacle (30). A first plunger stop mechanism (140) is adapted to stop a displacement of the plunger (70) relative to the injection solution receptacle (30) in the distal direction at a first dosing position (P1). A second plunger stop mechanism (140) is adapted to stop a displacement of the plunger (70) relative to the injection solution receptacle (30) from the first dosing position (P1) in the distal direction at a second dosing position (P2), wherein the first and the second dosing position (P2) of the plunger (70) are selected in such a manner that the plunger (70), upon being displaced relative to the injection solution receptacle (30) between the first and the second dosing position (P2) is adapted to expel a desired dose of the injection solution contained in the injection solution receptacle (30) from the injection solution receptacle (30).

A filling adapter (12) for connecting a syringe (14) containing an injection solution to an injection device (10), the filling adapter (12) comprises a hollow sleeve (16) and an adapter element (18) accommodated within the sleeve (16), wherein the adapter element (18) comprises a first connecting port (20) adapted to be connected to the syringe (14) and a second connecting port (22) adapted to be connected to the injection device (10), and wherein the adapter element (18) is provided with a through-opening (26) extending therethrough. A cannula (27) protrudes from the second connecting port (22) of the adapter element (18), wherein the cannula (27) is arranged in fluid communication with the through-opening (26) extending through the adapter element (18), and wherein the adapter element (18) further is provided with a venting device (64) which is adapted to vent gas introduced from the syringe (14) into the injection device (10) via the through-opening (26) and the cannula (27) into the ambient.

A medical device for the intracellular delivery of a therapeutic formulation to a predetermined site within a patient is disclosed. The medical device comprising a needle hub assembly such that the needle hub assembly is attached to a distal end of a syringe, the needle hub assembly comprising a hollow body; a platform; and a needle hub, wherein the needle hub comprising a plurality of needles disposed on the platform arranged in a predefined needle array, wherein the plurality of needles are injected into the predetermined site within the patients' skin and/or scalp for delivering the therapeutic formulation.
