The device (1) has a housing (2), and a flexible bag arranged in the housing and intended to receive a liquid. A dispensing device, in particular an injection syringe (5), is also arranged in the housing, so that it is removable from the housing. A transfer channel (6) serves for direct or indirect transfer of the liquid from the bag into the dispensing device. At least one pressure plate (7) is also provided, which can be pressed against the bag in order to empty the bag. The pressure plate is preferably activated via a spring mechanism (16), which serves as energy accumulator. The device, according to the invention, makes it possible, with a few manoeuvres, to prepare an injection liquid and deliver it to the injection syringe, with the substances being brought together by a largely automated procedure.

A drug vial safety device, including a cover that is securable to a drug vial is disclosed. The cover at least partially encloses at least a neck and a lid of the drug vial. The cover includes a port having a shape that restricts syringe access to the vial through the port to a syringe shaped to be compatible with the port shape.

A drug container closure for mounting on an open-topped drug container to form a ready-to-use drug reconstitution assemblage for use with a needleless syringe. The drug container closure includes a drug container stopper for sealing the drug container and a fluid transfer member with an integral needleless syringe connector and a puncturing cannula. The fluid transfer member is manually disposed along a diametric inverted L-shaped track pair from an initial non-puncturing position to a puncturing position. The inverted L-shaped track pair includes one-way snap members to prevent a user returning the fluid transfer member to an earlier position and indicating progress of the user activation.

A system for preparing an injection includes a first container with a first cavity and a rigid outer wall and two ends, a movable stopper being provided on one side of the first cavity, which sealingly closes this cavity and is displaceable inside the first container and comprising a second container, which encloses a second cavity, one container comprising a first substance, and the other container comprising a second substance. The second container comprises an at least regionally elastic wall and in this way has a variable volume. The second container is designed such that a pressure can be built inside the second container by way of the at least regionally elastic wall. The second container is a tube.

A device for transferring a toxic substance from a dispensing vessel to at least one receiving vessel comprising: (i) a receiving portion arranged to receive a dispensing vessel containing a toxic substance; and (ii) a transfer apparatus having a first infusion line adapted for fluid communication with the dispensing vessel to transfer a carrier fluid into said vessel and a second infusion line having one end adapted for fluid communication to withdraw and transfer the carrier fluid and the toxic substance from the dispensing vessel and the other end of the second infusion line arranged to connect with the at least one receiving vessel.

Liquid drug transfer devices employing manual rotation of a drug vial adapter with respect to a liquid container adapter for dual flow communication step actuation for establishing flow communication between a liquid container containing liquid contents and an initially intact, namely, non-punctured, drug vial. Manual rotation compacts a liquid drug transfer device along a longitudinal device axis for urging a puncturing tip through a drug vial stopper during a drug vial flow communication step for flow communication with a drug vial interior. Manual rotation also executes a liquid container flow communication step for flow communication with a liquid container, therefore establishing flow communication between a drug vial and a liquid container.

A robotized syringe actuator has a holding clamp for holding the peripheral flange of the opening of the tube or the flange at the end of the syringe plunger, by applying simultaneous pressure to both faces of the tube flange or of the syringe plunger flange. The actuator has a holder for the syringe cylinder which has a housing for receiving the syringe tube.

A device for loading medical containers on dosing machines, includes an adaptor for medical containers and a support for the adaptor, in which the support includes an attachment means to the dosing machine and in which the adaptor and the support include means for pivoting relative to one another and means for clipping to each other. The means being arranged in such a way that the pivoting of the adaptor and of the support by means of the pivoting means produces the clipping together of the adaptor and the support.

A liquid-transfer adapter operatively interposable between an injector and a vial is provided. The liquid-transfer has an injector engaging portion configured for fluidly coupling to an injector and a vial coupling. The vial coupling includes a spike that has a spike axis and a tip portion configured for piercing a septum of a vial. The tip portion includes a plurality of facets that meet each other at one or more edges and at least one of the one or more edges is sloped with respect to the spike axis. The spike defines a channel extending therethrough in fluid communication with the injector engaging portion. A channel opening is defined in at least one of the facets and disposed without interrupting the edges.

A vial cap is configured to releasably contain a portion of a material, for example a powdered medication, for dispensing into a container. Via operation of a depressable plunger, the material is released into the container for rehydrating and mixing with a liquid, and thereafter may be extracted, such as via a needle. In this manner, a rehydrated medication may be provided in a predetermined amount and at a desired time.
