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).
