A fluid transfer connector or adapter for coupling to a container or pharmacy bottle for facilitating the transfer of fluid or medicine from the bottle to a syringe, or from the syringe to the bottle. Optionally, an additional connector can be provided for coupling the fluid transfer connector to the syringe.

The invention pertains to a container for storing medical and/or pharmaceutical products. The container includes a plastic container body including a side wall, a base and an opening defining the storage volume, an active insert, placed inside the container body and including a tubular side wall of length L, extending from a lower extremity to an upper extremity, and an empty interstice between the side wall of the active insert and the side wall of the container body. This container is an improved container for the storage of medical and/or pharmaceutical products.

An apparatus for delivering a therapeutic agent may be associated with a cap for a bottle that contains a prescription for a drug to which the therapeutic agent corresponds. When the prescription bottle holds an opioid, the therapeutic agent may be a substance that counteracts the effects of the opioid. The apparatus may include a nozzle that facilitates nasal administration of the therapeutic agent. The apparatus may be capable of attaching to a cap for a prescription bottle, or the apparatus may have a configuration that enables it to serve as the cap for the prescription bottle.

A protecting system for containing a biopharmaceutical fluid includes: a flexible pouch designed to contain a biopharmaceutical fluid; a protecting package including: two frames which respectively form a lower frame and an upper frame and which have a peripheral area; a fastening system able to clamp the two frames of the protecting package to each other, the frames sandwiching the flexible pouch. The fastening system includes at least an assembly only including: a snap including a backing part; and a cap including a washer. The lower and the upper frames of the protecting package are directly clamped between the washer of the cap and the backing part of the snap in a clamping position.

This invention concerns a dispenser of liquid medicine. The dispenser has multiple cartridges containing separate liquids in each cartridge. In operation, the cartridges dispense their respective content into a reservoir, the liquid is then mixed before being dispensed through a mouthpiece and consumed orally. The dispenser has electronic components and can be controlled by an internal computer or by an outside application or software on a mobile device or a computer. The liquid dispensed may be changed and tailored using the internal computer or outside application or software.

A vascular access device adapter allowing for interchangeable connections between separate components of a larger extravascular system while minimizing exposure to non-sterile environments in point-of-care testing and analysis is provided. The vascular access device adapter includes a body having a self-healing puncturable septum secured by an end cap by which hollow small gauge needles may extract or deposit fluid. The adapter device further includes an end cap enclosing the septum, the end cap having ribs which removably secure the adapter to the inner housing of a sample collection device.

A technique for tracking, for example, the temperature of one or more sample vials containing biological material stored in a low-temperature shipping vessel. Each sample vial has vial electronics that senses temperature and transmits temperature data to the reader head of a reader device, which has a controller that is not at the low temperature. In some implementations, the shipping vessel has a cap with a recess that houses the controller and a hollow plug that houses a cable that connects the controller to the reader head that is located in the vessel's cold interior sufficiently close to the sample vial to enable interaction with the vial electronics. In some implementations, the reader head transmits electrical power to the vial electronics. By tracking the temperature of individual sample vials rather than the temperature of the vessel interior, more-relevant temperature data is available.

The present invention discloses a dosage management device comprising a lid with dosage regimen indicia. The dosage regimen indicia comprise information related to dosage frequency. The dosage regimen indicia are a representation of AM, PM, day and night. The lid comprises a first layer having a cavity, a second layer disposed within the cavity comprising dosage regimen indicia on an upper surface thereof and a third layer having an opening, encloses the cavity of the first layer. The first layer, the second layer and the third layer are connected to one another via a swivel mount. The swivel mount is configured to enable the user to rotate the third layer 45 degrees to shade at least a portion of the dosage regimen indicia comprising the information related to the frequency at which the medication is to be retrieved from the container and expose at least a portion of the dosage regimen indicia comprising the information related to a subsequent frequency.

Medical vials and bottles containing medications dispensable syringes and needles are interfaced to replaceable caps having alcohol infused wipes therein to sterilize the rubber hubs through which the needles will be inserted into the vials to draw out the medication therefrom.

A vial assembly may include a vial having a body to hold a liquid material, and a neck extending from the body. The neck may include a multi-use surface configured to permit access to the liquid material. The vial assembly may include a cap to be received by the neck and to cover the multi-use surface. The cap may include a base having a first major surface, and a second major surface opposite of the first major surface, arms extending from the second major surface, and a rupturable reservoir of disinfectant material carried by the base between the first major surface and the second major surface. One or more of the first major surface and the second major surface may be flexible so as to rupture the rupturable reservoir when the cap is received by the neck.
