A syringe-type injection device for dispensing a preset dose of a liquid drug includes two sleeve-like components releasably connected with each other so as to be aligned in axial direction. One of the sleeve-like components is a holder for a dispensing mechanism and the other of the sleeve-like components is adapted to accommodate an ampoule and a cannula. The dispensing mechanism includes an axially movable piston rod for actuating a plug of the ampoule. The piston rod has a radially projecting cam follower and the holder defines at least one axially extending slot having a predetermined length, wherein the cam follower is received by the at least one slot, such that only a single dose can be dispensed from an ampoule by an axial movement of the piston rod.
