The present invention is directed to a device which facilitates injection of a medicament using a hypodermic syringe. An exemplary embodiment of the device includes an injection application for a hypodermic syringe comprising a main body, a cover, an axial force structure, and a rate controller. The main body includes a perimeter bounding and defining an enclosure about a primary axis and operable to mechanically grip and enclose a major section of the hypodermic syringe. The cover is opaque, extends from the main body, and is continuous and unitary with the main body. The axial force structure is disposed in the main body and is operable to provide axial travel force to the hypodermic syringe along the primary axis. A rate controller is in cooperation with the axial force, and is operable to control the rate of travel of the hypodermic syringe from the unimpeded axial force.
