The syringe drip guard may have an outer wall protruding radially outward relative to the sidewall. A channel may be defined between the outer wall of the syringe drip guard and the sidewall of the syringe. The channel may have a closed proximal end and an open distal end. The syringe drip guard may be configured to at least one of: collect, absorb, or adsorb fluid within the channel.
