Container for storing and dispensing injection, infusion and diagnostic preparations

A container to be used for injection, infusion, and diagnostic preparations having a filling volume ranging from 10 to 200 ml for long-term storage and for direct dispensing of the preparations, the container comprising:

• a glass cylinder;
• and
• a converging glass headpiece molded to the glass cylinder as one piece, the converging glass headpiece having a stopper-less connecting cone;
• wherein the container has dimensions in which the ratio of total height to outer diameter of the container is greater than 2.5:1;
• wherein a separate threaded coupling is attached concentrically to the stopper-less connecting cone;
• wherein the threaded coupling is adapted to receive a sealing cap as a closing element;
• wherein, when the connecting cone is tightly closed, the sealing cap is removable for direct injection, such that the threaded coupling may receive at least one element selected from the group consisting of a needle and an infusion line;
• wherein the glass cylinder has an inside wall and is connected to a foot portion, the foot portion having a finger grip, wherein the finger grip has a cylindrical extension that is attached to the inside wall of the glass cylinder;
• wherein the glass cylinder is capable of receiving a stopper, the stopper serving as a piston and the stopper including a connecting point for attaching a piston rod;
• wherein the threaded coupling is snap fit into a groove located on the connecting cone.
