Intradermal delivery device including a needle assembly

摘要

A drug delivery device including a needle assembly (20) facilitates making intradermal injections using a variety of drug container types such as a syringe . A hub (22) supports the needle (24) while a limiter (26) surrounds the needle. The limiter includes a skin engaging surface (42) that is adapted to be received against the skin of an animal to be intradermally injected. A forward end (40) of the needle extends beyond the skin engaging surface a selected distance to limit a depth that the needle penetrates into the animal's skin.
