Zusammenfassung:	A device for delivering a substance into the skin of a patient includes a housing and a plurality of microneedles for penetrating the skin. The housing includes a bottom wall with a plurality of apertures for supplying the substance to the microneedles. The housing also includes a flexible top cover member enclosing a bladder containing the substance to be delivered. The bottom wall of the housing has at least one cannula facing the bladder. Pressing on the top cover member causes the cannula to puncture the bladder and deliver the substance to the microneedles for delivery to the patient. In one embodiment, the cannula is surrounded by a flexible member to prevent piercing of the bladder until sufficient pressure is applied to the cover member to depress the flexible member.
