Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A drug delivery device includes a housing, a container disposed in the housing, an activation mechanism, a needle insertion mechanism, and a fluid flow path. The container has an inner volume to contain a medicament which is urged out of the container by the activation mechanism. The needle insertion mechanism includes an actuation assembly adapted to insert a needle and a cannula to deliver the medicament from the container and a valve assembly. The fluid flow connection is coupled with the container and the needle insertion mechanism and is adapted to allow the medicament to flow from the container to the needle insertion mechanism. The valve assembly is repeatedly movable between at least a valve open position and a valve closed position to selectively allow and restrict the medicament to flow through the needle and/or the cannula.
