Abstract

The invention relates to a method for delivering at least one fluid medicament from a medical device. The invention also relates to a medical device. The technical problem of improving the dose accuracy is solved by a method for delivering at least one fluid medicament from a medical device comprising a first reservoir containing a first fluid medicament, a second reservoir containing a fluid, and a fluid element connected to said first reservoir and said second reservoir. The method comprises receiving information about a desired dose of the first fluid medicament to be ejected, adjusting said dose to be ejected from said first reservoir based at least in part on information about a content of said fluid element, and ejecting said adjusted dose from said first reservoir through said fluid element. The technical problem is further solved by a medical device configured to work according to the method.
