DRUG DELIVERY DEVICE AND ASSOCIATED PACKAGING

摘要

The present invention relates to a drug delivery device and in particular to temperature sensitive labelling of such devices. The Drug delivery device is designed for dispensing of a dose of a medicinal product and comprises a housing (15; 38), and a drive mechanism (10) comprising an axially displaceable piston rod (18) to act on a piston (16) of a cartridge (8) containing the medicinal product to be dispensed. The device is further provided with an indicator means (30; 32) adapted to irreversibly change at least one of its visually perceptible properties in response to the ambient temperature rising above and/or dropping below at least one predefined threshold. Said indicator means is preferably designed as a protective cover arranged across a dosis display of the device.
