Naloxone containers

Well this post probably applies to containers for any injectable liquid so all you K people might be able to help out.
Anyway I have access to some naloxone, unfortunately I would have to transport this over some distance and not in the original container so I need something new to package it in. Properties this new package would have in order of importance.
1) Rugged. Something which is going to break and/or spill wouldn't be very usefull. Glass vials, unless they are pretty rugged would fail this test.
2) Easy to dispense out of. Usually with these opiate antagonists you have some time to adminster them but ease of access is still a concern. Those automatically sealing vials for carrying injecatable drugs seem ideal in this regard however they don't exactly sell them at the grocery store.
3) Inconspicous. Preferably both on inspection and in relation to x-rays (can take it in luggage without rousing sucpiscion etc..). A bottle of naloxone screams opiate user to someone in the know.
4) Sterile. Hopefully it would never have to be used but being sterile would be be a benifit then.
Of course it needs to be reasonably obtainable too.

I really know almost nothing about naloxone. So I don't know how much liquid is required for a dose blah blah blah. But I would assume that the most practical way to transport it as a liquid would be to get those contact lens cases with the screw on lids. They'd even work perfect for simply dropping a cotton in and drawing up, as they're shaped something like a spoon anyways.
Or of course you could not shoot insane amounts of dope and not worry about overdosing.
And man, I'm telling you, putting that quote which I will NOT repeat as your tag is just seriously bad karma. You can control a lot of things, but you can't control strange circumstances.
 
Jesus christ I just went back and reread my sig and I just stared at it and said I am a fucking idiot what was I thinking when I wrote that. I publicly disavow that quote entierly and apoligize for ever writing it down. The best I can say is maybe I was high.
I personally have done plenty of stupid shit that could get me arrested...it really blows my mind that I wrote that. Goes to show you that I probably am a stupid drug user. If I wasn't me I would try and beat myself up for saying that...not only is it wrong, dumb and stupid but it is cruel to the very people who are paying the highest price for our countries evil ways.
Anyway as to the answer contact cases sound like a great method. It comes as a clean solution so I don't need to filter it but it seems to meet all the requirements, thanks!
I don't intend to do crazy amounts but sometimes quality varies and friends have entered respitory depression for what should have been safe amounts. It`s just like getting arrested, sometimes shit happens.

I don't know.. I guess I'm lucky or something. My tolerance is enough that I can definantly handle a $20 vial. I seriously doubt I will ever run into dope too much better than the best vials I've experienced. And I never do more than a vial at once anyways. I've yet to have any problems. I've seen it happen to friends, though.. but they've all been shooting bag after bag. I'm not really into being blasted out of my mind.. sometimes I nod, but it's never really deep and someone walking in the room is enough to wake me up. Generally I just like to be feeling good.

Yeah, you just never know when something stupid will happen to you. A flat tire and a cop stops to help you and notices something is wrong. Something falls out of your pocket when you're paying for cigarettes at the gas station. You end up in the wrong place at the wrong time.
There's so many things you can do to cut down on risks and not do anything illegal, but nobody is ever 100% in control of every situation.
I certainly don't do everything I could to avoid having problems either. First of all, I score in an open air market. So there is ALWAYS a degree of danger, especially being the lone white guy in a black neighborhood known for it's open air heroin market. The only control I have over that is to not buy heroin.
Then I like to get high right away. Instead of waiting until I get home, I drive to the nearest McDonald's parking lot. I rely on the fact that it's light out and nobody is looking for it. I know how close someone has to be to see into my car. I keep a good watch. But it's not perfect.
Next, I drive home high. I can maintain a consistent speed. I do not go more than 5 mph over the speed limit. I stay in my lane. But if something happened, I'm high, I have drugs in my car, I have paraphenilia in the car.
I avoid being in situations with other people. I know what I'm capable and not capable of. I rely on being cool, casual and sharp. I cannot control how other people act. I also ALWAYS avoid going to any type of party where other people are going to be on drugs unless it's very controlled and I am sure that there aren't going to be fights, people outside or people being loud or loud music being played. Being at a party that had the cops called on a noise complaint almost caught me multiple felonies for being a fugitive of the law and having certain drugs on my person that I was unable to flush.
Here's a tip for people, though. If you ever need to lose some stuff in a situation like a party or in your car, a partially full soda can is a great ally as you can't really look into it like a bottle or a cup and it dissolves powder and pills. I always buy one and take a few sips and leave one in my cup holder when I'm on a mission.
