Insulin syringes with a Luer-slip tip designed to provide needlestick protection (safety). These syringes include some mechanism (manually positioned or activated) intended either to shield, blunt, or recess the needle after use or, by some other means, to lessen the possibility of contact of the healthcare provider with a sharp needle. The tapered Luer tip (i.e., Luer slip) allows the two mating tapered fittings to slip-fit into each other in a liquid-leakproof and mechanically secure manner that still permits the parts to be readily separated.
