ABSTRACT:
The closed system medication administering system employs an adaptor having a hollow penetrating which can directly access a drug vial by piercing through a bung in the drug vial. A collapsible sleeve is placed around the hollow penetrating member and a membrane is disposed across the end of the sleeve to seal the hollow penetrating member when not in use. The hollow penetrating member also pierces the membrane when pushed into a drug vial. Resilient locking prongs may be provided to fixedly secure the drug vial to the adaptor or may be omitted. A reservoir bag may also be provided in a second line to fill with fluid from the primary line in order to effect reconstitution or dilution of a powdered or crystalline type drug in the drug vial. Simple manipulations of the unit consisting of the flexible bag, adaptor and drug vial allow the powdered drug to be reconstituted or diluted and subsequently dispensed.
