What is an oral dosing syringe?

An oral dosing syringe is a tool used in the delivery of liquids to the mouth. The 10 mL oral dosing syringes are most commonly found in most pharmacies. The larger 20 and 30 mL oral syringes can be ordered from the pharmaceutical distributor. When having your pharmacist order the larger 20 and/or 30 mL oral syringes, you will need to be sure they have tip caps to seal the end while shaking the suspension prior to administration.

Where can the 20 mL or 30 mL oral dosing syringe be purchased?

1. Health Care Logistics, an online vendor, offers 20 mL amber plastic dispensers.
2. Parents can check with any compounding pharmacy and ask specifically for 20 mL or 30 mL (harder to find) oral dosing syringes.
