A drug delivery device that utilizes a fluid subsystem with a switching
device to deliver multiple drugs to an animal without causing
contamination. The fluid subsystem can further comprise disposable
syringes, fluid reservoirs, disposable tubing and a catheter. In the
embodiments that utilize multiple disposable syringes, the drug delivery
device allows a user to deliver multiple drugs to an animal through a
catheter without contaminating the switching devices that control the
flow of fluid. The drug delivery device can further utilize a controller
to control the switching devices and a controller and syringe pumps to
control the operation of the syringes.
