An administering device, e.g. an injection device, includes a housing, a reservoir for a drug, the reservoir formed or accommodated by the housing, a dosing member which can perform a dosing movement relative to the housing for setting a dosage of the drug to be administered and a conveying member for delivering the dosage set, wherein the dosing member is blocked or locked in the direction of the dosing movement in a releasable dosing blocking engagement in an initial state of the administering device and released from the block at the end of a priming movement of the conveying member.
