Abstract
In order to withdraw pharmaceutical products from sterile vials by means of a syringe, apparatus is used on one end of which a syringe possibly containing a liquid solvent is mounted and at the other end of which a seat is provided for housing the mouth of a vial. The syringe needle can puncture the rubber or similar stopper by which the vial is sealed, while the needle itself remains enclosed and protected by said apparatus. The invention relates to a device which, when the vial has been removed, can itself be housed in said apparatus seat to enable the needle to puncture a rubber stopper provided on the device, which is connected to one end of a cannula having for example mounted on its other end a needle for transfusion purposes. In this manner, the liquid can be discharged from the syringe while the needle remains enclosed and protected by the said apparatus.
