Abstract

A wet-dry syringe package including a syringe adapted to carry a liquid and a vial carrying a dry medicament with cooperating adapters provided on the syringe and vial for telescoping action whereby the syringe needle will be embedded in the vial stopper when the package is in the storage condition. Further movement of the syringe toward the vial causes the needle end to project through the vial stopper and establish fluid communication between the vial and syringe whereby the dry medicament and liquid are mixed. The mixture is then aspirated into the syringe and the syringe is freed of the package elements for ready use.
