A syringe assembly comprising:

• a syringe barrel having a first end, a second end, and a sidewall extending between the first end and the second end, the sidewall defining a chamber;
• a stopper disposed within the chamber of the syringe barrel;
• a plunger adapter engaged with the stopper;
• and
• first and second plunger arms each comprising an elongate body having a first end and a second end, the first end of each plunger arm including one of a receiver and an engagement and the other of the receiver and the engagement engaged with the plunger adapter, wherein the receiver is pivotally secured with the engagement, the first and second plunger arms each having a pre-use position wherein the first and second plunger arms are spaced from each other, and a use position wherein the first and second plunger arms are positioned adjacent to each other and configured to displace the stopper relative to the syringe barrel.

A syringe assembly comprising:

• a syringe barrel having a first end, a second end, and a sidewall extending between the first end and the second end, the sidewall defining a chamber with a longitudinal axis extending therealong;
• a stopper disposed at least partially within the chamber;
• a plunger adapter engaged with the stopper, the plunger adapter defining a recessed portion;
• and
• first and second plunger arms each having a first end pivotally secured to the plunger adapter and transitionable from a pre-use position in which a portion of the first end of each plunger arm is secured to the plunger adapter and the first and second plunger arms extend adjacent to the syringe barrel, to a use position in which the first end of each plunger arm is entirely received within the recessed portion and the first and second plunger arms are positioned adjacent to each other.
