An applicator for delivering pharmaceutical products or the like to a bodily cavity includes a barrel member having a distal end which is equipped with an opening. The applicator also includes a plurality of petals extending outwardly from the distal end in a generally axial direction. The petals cooperate with the opening so as to form a receptacle for releasably receiving a pharmaceutical product in the distal end of the barrel member. Each of the petals has a truncated flexible tip sized and shaped so as to engage a substantially central portion of the pharmaceutical product such that a large section of the pharmaceutical product extends outwardly beyond the petals so as to facilitate the release of the pharmaceutical product from the receptacle. The device also includes a plunger member for releasing the pharmaceutical product from the receptacle . In accordance with the present invention, the device can be packaged in a package together with the pharmaceutical product received in the receptacle.

Applicateur pour administrer des produits pharmaceutiques ou d'autres produits semblables dans une cavité corporelle, comprenant un élément cylindrique doté d'une extrémité distale, laquelle comprend une ouverture. L'applicateur comprend également plusieurs extensions en forme de pétales qui partent de l'extrémité distale en direction généralement axiale. Ces extensions en forme de pétales épousent l'ouverture de manière à former un réceptacle pour loger sans fixer un produit pharmaceutique dans l'extrémité distale de l'élément cylindrique. Chaque extension en forme de pétale comporte une pointe souple tronquée, de dimension et de forme appropriées pour insérer une partie pratiquement centrale du produit pharmaceutique de manière à ce qu'une grande portion de ce produit s'étende vers l'extérieur, au-delà des extensions en forme de pétales, de manière à faciliter sa libération du réceptacle. Le dispositif comprend également un élément de piston pour libérer le produit pharmaceutique du réceptacle. Selon cette invention, le dispositif peut être emballé avec le produit pharmaceutique inséré dans le réceptacle.
