A member asked:

How come are pca morphine syringes made under aseptic conditions?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

To keep bacteria out: Anything that will be entering your body should be as sterile as possible. Pca morphine stays hooked up to youfor several hours-days and so should definitely be kept aspetic.
