  • Patent number: 4493348
    Abstract: A container housing liquid medication is provided together with a syringe and a coupling member for use in orally administering the medication to a patient. The coupling member is fastened to the container and includes a head member projecting upwardly to receive an inner tip of the syringe barrel. The liquid medication is dispensed from the container into a barrel of the syringe through a bore of the head member when a plunger is moved within the syringe barrel. After a predetermined amount of medication is received by the syringe barrel, the syringe barrel is removed from the head member and the predetermined amount of medication is administered orally to the patient. A cap member attached to the coupling member by means of a strap closes off the bore so that no medication escapes from the container when the syringe is disconnected from the head member.
