Vial Adapters

By Fabrice Berthelot

January 22, 2018

Vial adapters are easy to use and pose less risk of needlestick injury than traditional syringe and needle manipulation. They not only provide needle-free transfer of liquid for reconstitution, but also enable consistent withdrawal of drug product from a vial. By providing such consistent withdrawal, the use of vial adapters can aid in reducing the amount of required overfill (extra drug product in a vial to address the fact that not all drug product can be removed), which may result in cost savings.
