A syringe for connection to a fluid container containing fluid to be discharged comprises a syringe barrel with a plunger moving therein, and a discharge outlet, through which fluid contained in the fluid container is dischargeable by actuation of the plunger, said syringe barrel being connected with the fluid container port and the discharge outlet via a fluid channel system, and a valve mechanism being provided in the fluid channel system, allowing the syringe barrel to be filled with fluid from the fluid container and to then discharge said fluid through the discharge outlet, wherein the valve mechanism comprises a valve member which is movable between first and second positions, said valve member, in said first position, allowing fluid flow from the fluid container to the syringe barrel and simultaneously blocking fluid flow from or to the discharge outlet and, in said second position, allowing fluid flow from the syringe barrel to the discharge outlet while simultaneously blocking fluid flow from or to the fluid container.
