Abstract

An actuator is used to dispense a medicament from a container having at least a first and second portion. The actuator includes a holder, a trigger member and a push member. The trigger member is pivotally connected to the holder at a pivot axis. The push member is connected to the trigger member. The push member is adapted to move at least the second portion of the container relative to the holder as the push member is pivoted in a first direction. In one preferred embodiment, the trigger member follows a path, and a stop member engages one of the container and push member and immobilizes the push member as the trigger member is moved along a predetermined portion of the path.
