ABSTRACT:
An implantable drug delivery depot has penetrable inlet means which define a first plane and anchor means which define a second plane. According to the invention, the first and second planes are substantially perpendicular. When the depot is implanted with the anchor means parallel to the skin surface, the inlet means is oriented so that a hypodermic needle penetrating the inlet means is nearly parallel to the skin surface, reducing the danger of dislodgement of the needle from the inlet.
