The reconstitution of pharmaceutical drugs is not uncommon in pharmacy practice. The dry medications are normally contained in glass or plastic vials, and syringes are often used to push through the vial’s rubber stopper to transfer medication or add diluent. Depending on the drug, the procedure can possibly pose a hazard to pharmacy workers and precautions are important to minimize risk. In addition, making the reconstitution process as simple and accurate as possible is crucial for both efficiency and patient safety.
Specialized vial adapters ensure that medication reconstitution does not introduce any contaminants, while also protecting pharmacy staff from accidental exposure. PraxiJect vial adapters by MedXL are easy to use and fit standard luer lock and luer slip syringes. They are needleless, avoiding the risk of needle-stick injuries. A swabbable valve maintains sterility and avoids rubber stopper integrity issues.
