Abstract

See full text

An enteral dispenser and associated method of use is provided for enterally dispensing liquid medications. The enteral dispenser includes a barrel having a number of dosing gradations arranged upon its outer surface. The barrel receives a liquid medication that has been selected from a predefined group of liquid medications having a range of colors. A plunger is moveably disposed within the barrel, and a piston is coupled to a distal end of the plunger. The piston has a peripheral portion for selective alignment with respect to a desired one of the dosing gradations and is a color that is optically differentiable from each of the colors represented within the range of colors of the predefined group of liquid medications, such that an user may differentiate between the color of the a peripheral portion of the piston and the color of any selected liquid medication.
