FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to medicine. Implanted drug delivery device comprises element containing a medicinal agent, which includes a solid unit of a medicinal agent, containing a medicinal agent and casing with a defined hole. Defined hole is made with sizes that allow locking of said solid drug unit, as a result of which said casing encloses a first part of surface of solid drug unit and exposes a second part of surface of solid drug unit. Device is elastically deformable from a relatively straightened shape suited for insertion through a lumen into a body cavity of a patient and a retention shape suited to retain device within body cavity. Device is configured for controlled drug release by erosion of exposed second part of surface of at least one solid drug unit. Also disclosed are versions of device for drug delivery, having structural differences, and a method of local drug delivery.
EFFECT: technical result consists in delivery of medicines with low solubility in effective release doses.
