A sealed medication dispensing and administering device has a syringe, a plunger, a connecting holder, an elastic valve, and a liquid stopper. The syringe has an outer barrel having an air inlet tube and an inner barrel inserted inside the outer barrel and having a medication inlet tube. The plunger is inserted within the outer and inner barrels. The connecting holder is connected to the syringe and has a connecting cover with at least one outer connecting hole and two piercing needles respectively piercing inside the air inlet tube and the medication inlet tube. Inner spaces of the two piercing needles communicate with the at least one outer connecting hole. The elastic valve selectively covers the two piercing needles. The fluid stopper is disposed within the connecting cover and blocks one of the at least one outer connecting hole and the inner space of the air inlet tube.

A mix and triggering assembly for a medicament delivery device, comprising: a housing structure having a proximal end and a distal end, a delivery member cover, a rotator sleeve, and a triggering member configured to be rotatably locked with the rotator sleeve and the delivery member cover, the triggering member being configured to move axially relative to the rotator sleeve, wherein the delivery member cover, the rotator sleeve and the triggering member are configured to be received by the housing structure, the delivery member cover being configured to extend from the proximal end of the housing structure, wherein the delivery member cover, the rotator sleeve and the triggering member are rotatably arranged relative to the housing structure, wherein the housing structure has a thread structure and the rotator sleeve and the triggering member are configured to be in a threaded connection with the thread structure in a ready to mix position of the triggering member, preventing irrotational axial movement of the triggering member relative to the housing structure towards the distal end of the housing structure, wherein rotation of the delivery member cover relative to the housing structure causes the rotator sleeve and the triggering member to be screwed from the ready to mix position towards the distal end of the housing structure until the triggering member reaches a dose setting position, in which the triggering member is configured to be released from engagement with the thread structure, enabling irrotational axial movement of the triggering member further towards the distal end of the housing structure.

A fluid transfer device can include a first attachment portion configured to engage a first port of a source container and a second attachment portion configured to engage a second port of an intermediate container. The first attachment portion can include a first projection defining a first fluid passage and the second attachment portion can include a second projection defining a second fluid passage. The fluid transfer device can further include a selector portion for selectively transitioning the fluid transfer device from a first configuration in which a flow path between the first and second fluid passages is closed to a second configuration in which the flow path between the first and second fluid passages is open. The fluid transfer device can further include a limiter configured to inhibit the selector portion from selectively transitioning the fluid transfer device from the first configuration to the second configuration.

A system including an adapter for sequential engagement with a cartridge containing a first substance and a vial containing a second substance is disclosed. The adapter is configured to first engage with the vial and subsequently engage with the cartridge such that the cartridge is in fluid communication with the vial via the adapter. The system includes a latch member engageable with a portion of the cartridge. A plunger rod includes a protrusion and is adapted to communicate with the latch member, the plunger rod being transitionable from a disengaged position, in which the protrusion of the plunger rod is disengaged from the latch member and the latch member is locked to the cartridge, to an engaged position, in which the protrusion is engaged with the latch member and the latch member is unlocked from the cartridge and locked to the plunger rod.

A primary packaging for storage and/or administration of medical or pharmaceutical compounds includes a container that has a predetermined filling volume for receiving a medical or pharmaceutical compound. The container is permanently closed at a first end and has an integrally formed, circumferential flange portion at an open second end. The container has a cylindrical barrel that extends between the first end and the flange portion such that the barrel has an inner diameter and outer diameter corresponding to that of a standardized syringe for a nominal volume of the standardized syringe corresponding to the predetermined filling volume. Furthermore, a cross-sectional shape of the flange portion corresponds to the cross-sectional shape of a flange of a standardized vial. The primary packaging also includes a closure element that is adapted to fit tightly on the flange portion and into the barrel for sealing the open second end of the container.

It is known to deliver drugs through the skin, i.e. transdermally, by using a needle that is used in conjunction with a device.

A device (10) comprises a device body (12) which has an opening (14) for receiving a needle assembly (100) in use. The device also comprises a loading mechanism (16) which is moveable in use to receive the needle assembly (100) via the opening (14) and secure the needle assembly (100) relative to the device body (12). The loading mechanism (16) is configured to receive and secure the needle assembly (100) upon force exerted on the loading mechanism (16) in a single direction (F.sub.D1).

A closed and tamper-evident sealed container, including a fluid transport adapter. The adapter provides for sterile fluid communication between a fluid source outside the container and the container interior when adapter is open. The adapter is adjustable to a closed position wherein the fluid communication ceases. An alternative to the adapter utilizes a sampling attachment that fits into tight engagement with the lid which comprises at least one septum. Coupling the sampling attachment to the lid either causes sharps in the attachment to penetrate the at least one septum or to displace the edges of the septum inward to form a fluid communication with the container interior while the lid remains sealed closed. Other variations include a rotatable sampling attachment, a container with a displaceable bottom wall to act as a syringe and a large volume (e.g., 1500 mL) sealed ampoule which also uses a sampling attachment.

The invention is directed to a female-female syringe adapter, related systems, and methods of using the female-female adapter. The female-female syringe adapter may be used with male nozzles of syringes and reconstitution devices when reconstituting a lyophilized powder. The female-female adapter also may be used to combine doses in a common syringe from mixed reconstitution products in a multi-chambered syringe.

A drug mixing system including at least one receptacle port adaptor adapted to be inserted into a port of a fluid receptacle, at least one syringe adaptor adapted to be attached to a syringe and to the at least one receptacle port adaptor and at least one vial adaptor adapted for connection to a vial containing a drug and adapted for connection to the at least one syringe adaptor, the system being characterized in that at least one of the receptacle port adaptor, the at least one syringe adaptor and the at least one vial adaptor being vented to the atmosphere in a manner which prevents release to the atmosphere of possibly harmful contents of the vial in a liquid, solid or gaseous form.

The present disclosure relates to devices and methods for neutralizing an acidic anesthesia solution. An anesthesia neutralization device includes an outer housing and an inner housing. The inner housing holds a buffer carpule and an anesthetic carpule in a side by side arrangement, with the buffer solution maintained under pressure prior to deployment. A curved transfer needle is coupled to the outer housing and includes ends that both point respectively toward the buffer carpule and anesthetic carpule. The device is actuated by moving the inner housing relative to the outer housing to bring the anesthesia carpule and buffer carpule into contact with the transfer needle and to force buffer solution through the transfer needle and into the anesthesia carpule.
