Preferred embodiments having a small size of less than about 75mm in length, less than 50 mm in width and less than about 10 mm in thickness and may be releasably attached to the body (B). In one embodiments, the dispenser draws fluid from a flexible volume-conformable reservoir (4) and operates a dosing and metering pump (6, 61, 62, 63) incorporating a motor to deliver fluid through a fluid delivery tool (8, 81, 82). Disposed on the housing bottom (2B) is a peel-of-tape (22) that when removed, electrically connects a power supply (18) to power the operative components (3) of the dispenser into operation, exposes an adhesive (28) and a window (21) opened in the housing (2), and allows the fluid delivery tool (8) to extend for insertion into the skin (S). |
