Medication transfer needle, filtering/vented

30 devices · GMDN 60822

Medication transfer needles with filtering or venting are designed to safely draw and transfer liquid medications between containers, such as vials or ampules. Their dual-lumen design allows simultaneous aspiration of medication while venting air, reducing pressure buildup and minimizing contamination risk during preparation.

These devices are typically single-use, regulated as medical devices, and often feature a Luer connector for syringe attachment. They’re commonly used in pharmacy settings to improve workflow and hygiene during medication handling, though exact regulatory classification varies by jurisdiction.
