The invention refers to an injection device comprising a housing (10 410), a resilient member (90 510) adapted to provide a force necessary for ejecting a dose from the injection device, and a dose setting member (80, 60) operatively connected to a dose indicator (120 480) which is positioned within the housing (10 410). The dose setting member (80, 60 420, 440) and the dose indicator (120 480) cooperate to set the dose to be ejected from the injection device. The dose indicator (120 480), during dose setting, is adapted to undergo a mere rotational movement within the housing (10 410) and relative to the housing (10 410).
