Abstract
Pre-filled syringes, pharmaceutical compositions, and kits and methods relating to same allow for emergency administration of one or more drugs from prefilled glass syringes to a patient via a needleless connector. In preferred embodiments, the prefilled glass syringe has a drug volume of at least 5 mL, has a Luer-lock, and has a syringe tip with an internal channel that has a diameter of about 1.7 mm. Such syringes advantageously allow storage of emergency drugs without leaching of plastic materials and degradation, and substantially improve the safety profile where the syringe is attached to an IV line via a needleless connector.
