Syringe assemblies comprising a disinfecting reservoir collar to ensure an adherence to aseptic techniques for use in flush procedures for vascular access devices (VAD's) are described. The syringe assemblies include a plunger rod, a syringe barrel, and the reservoir collar that permits disinfection of a hub of a VAD connector upon connection to the reservoir collar. Also described are methods of disinfecting the vascular access devices.

An injection needle cover includes a support member supporting a needle body including a needle shaft, a first member rotatably connected to the support member via a hinge and covering a needle tip of the needle shaft, and a second member separably connected to the first member and constituting, with the first member, a container accommodating the needle shaft. The injection needle cover has: a first state in which the first member and the second member are connected to each other to accommodate the needle shaft in the container; a second state in which the second member is separated from the first member and the first member is rotated from its position in the first state to expose the needle tip; and a third state in which the first member is rotated from its position in the second state to cover the needle tip with the first member.

A transdermal delivery apparatus for delivering specific desired quantities of cream-base medicament or any flowable composition is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a revolving platform, a threaded screw-complex, a house, an applicator pad, and a safety cap. The revolving platform produces audible and tactile sensations upon interaction with projections from the house. The threaded screw-complex interacts with an elevator to transport the medicament upwards. The house confines an inner chamber to store the medicament. The applicator pad comprises a center outlet where the composition exits the chamber.

An applicator device configured for delivery of at least one solution to a surface, includes an applicator body having a head portion including an opening, a distal end, and an outer wall forming an interior space, and a fluid container moveably positioned in the interior space of the applicator body, the fluid container having an interior portion for holding the at least one solution and a membrane for preventing passage of the solution out of the interior portion. The device further includes a piercing element configured to breach the membrane to allow for passage of the solution out of the interior space of the fluid container, and a distal cap coupled to the distal end of the applicator body configured such that rotation of the distal cap causes longitudinal movement of the fluid container within the interior space of the applicator body into contact with the piercing element.

Drug delivery devices are provided having a needle assembly portion and a drug device portion, where the needle assembly portion is removably coupleable to the drug device portion. In some embodiments, the needle of the needle assembly may be moveable between a retracted position and an extended position for piercing into a subjects skin.

An active ingredient cartridge (2) for a medical syringe (1) with an essentially cylindrical hollow body (16) made of a first plastic material that can be filled with an active ingredient is intended to facilitate filling of the active ingredient and also to enable high throughput rates during filling in automated processes. For this purpose, according to the invention, the hollow body (16) is provided at one end (4) with an integrated closure body (50) made of a second plastic material which is softer than the first, wherein the hybrid body formed by the hollow body (16) and the closure body (50) is obtained by a 2K injection molding process.
