| Abstract: | An auto-injector automatically dispenses a predetermined dose of medicament upon activation. The auto-injector includes a needle cover operative to engage an injection site and activate the injector.

The non-removable needle cover prevents contact with the needle both before and after the medicament dispensing operation. |
