Abstract
A connector for joining a small dose syringe to a large reservoir syringe for filling the small dose syringe from the reservoir syringe. The connector has a tubular female-to-female coupler and there is a protector housing that is spaced radially outward from and extends forwardly beyond the coupler portion that attaches to the small dose syringe, thereby protecting this coupler portion from touch contamination. A removable closure with a recessed plug protects the small dose coupler portion from contamination when not in use.
