Abstract
A safety container for storing and transporting a hypodermic syringe with attached needle, wherein the container is comprised of an elongated transparent plastic tube having a closed end and an oppositely disposed open end. The open end is fitted with a removable lid. The closed end of tube contains a rubbery pad into which the needle point of the syringe is embedded. The resilient, self-sealing rubbery pad frictionally holds the needle and syringe secure, and seals the lumen of the needle to prevent leakage of fluid from the needle or syringe. At least one end of the container has flat edges to prevent rolling of the container when positioned horizontally or when in a moving vehicle.
