Zusammenfassung:Described herein is a drug product delivery device and method of delivering a drug on a swab. The drug product delivery device may include an applicator platform housed within a rigid housing. The applicator platform may be in the form of a plunger. The foil drug reservoir cap creates a fluid storage chamber disposed between the foil drug reservoir cap and the plunger. A series of fluidic channels carry fluid from the fluid storage chamber to an applicator. A frangible seal is attached to the plunger between the fluid storage chamber and the applicator. The frangible seal blocks a fluid from moving from the fluid storage chamber into the series of fluidic channels. Actuation of the plunger causes the frangible seal to be ruptured, which causes the fluid to exit the fluid storage chamber and enter into the fluidic channels. The fluidic channels carry the fluid to the applicator.
