In the pharmaceutical industry, plastics can be used to hold medicines, but not all plastics can hold medicines and must be qualified medical plastics. So, what kind of drugs can medical plastics hold?
There are many types of medicines that can be contained in medical plastic bottles, which can be roughly divided into two categories: solid and liquid. Among them, solid drugs include capsules, tablets, and pills. The packaging requirements of these drugs are mainly moisture-proof performance. A desiccant is placed inside the bottle to absorb moisture. Generally, the desiccant of the bottle is packaged in bags. With the continuous updating and iteration of packaging, some bottles combine the moisture-proof function with the bottle cap, and a moisture-proof integrated cover appears. Such a design can avoid direct contact between the drug and the desiccant, and also prevent children from accidentally eating the desiccant.
Moisture-proof tablet bottles can be filled with liquid drugs, mainly including various oral liquids, suspensions, etc. Liquid preparations have high requirements on the tightness of the packaging. In order to enhance the tightness, aluminum foil gaskets are used to seal. For some special drugs, such as ibuprofen suspension, acetaminophen suspension drops, etc., in order to prevent children from accidentally opening the package and accidentally eating the medicine, a medicinal bottle cap with a child-proof opening function is selected to protect the safety of children.
The types of medicines that can be contained in medical plastics are relatively wide. In addition to the above-mentioned medicines, medicines such as injections and spray preparations are also included. With the continuous development of medical plastics, the use of plastic packaging has become the mainstream form of packaging for medicines. !
