Claim:
A package comprising: a syringe comprising a proximal region having a width and including a flange and a flange region, a distal region having a width, and a barrel extending from the proximal region to the distal region, the flange region having a width that is greater than the width at the distal region and the proximal region, the syringe surrounded by a blister package, the blister package comprising: a flexible web sealed to a backing defining a compartment surrounding the syringe and providing a sealed region about a periphery of the backing, the sealed region defining a proximal region seal having a width, a distal region seal having a width, and a flange region seal having a width, the flange region seal width substantially reduced adjacent the flange region compared to the distal region seal width to enable the syringe to be squeezed out of the package with only one hand without a peel tab so that upon removal of the syringe from the blister package, the flange region and the proximal region exit the package prior to the distal region.
