Drawing From an Ampule

Captions available

The idea

An ampule is a small sealed glass container with a scored neck that is snapped open.

In practice

Medication is drawn from an ampule with a blunt filter needle, which keeps out any glass particles; then the needle is changed before injecting.

Where people slip

Ampule medication is used at once, and any leftover is discarded properly.
