A bone fastener is adapted to deliver biologically active substances to a bone site. An applicator is saturated with the substance and is disposed within an inner cavity of the fastener, near the bone site. Channels through the body of the fastener permit the substance to flow to the bone site. The substance can include therapeutic drugs, such as antibiotics, analgesics, bone morphogenic proteins, DNA, chemotherapy drugs and angiogenesis factors.
