Pharmaceutical composition container

Abstract

The cleanliness when a pharmaceutical composition is swallowed is improved. A pharmaceutical composition container 10 is equipped with at least three spaces 30, 32, 34, 36 and 38 inside a container body 20 . The pharmaceutical composition container 10 is further equipped with a cover 22 . The portions 140, 142, 144 and 146 between two adjoining spaces are sealed. The portions 140, 142, 144 and 146 between two adjoining spaces open when force is applied from the outside of the pharmaceutical composition container 10 . At least one of the spaces is an apertured space 38 , which comprises an aperture 60 . A swallowing-aid substance 40 is stored in a swallowing-aid substance chamber 30 , which is at least one of the spaces. Pharmaceutical compositions 80 and 82 are stored in pharmaceutical composition chambers 34 and 36 , each of which is at least one of the spaces. Of the container body 20 , the portion forming the apertured space 38 is covered by a cover 22.

1 . A pharmaceutical composition container equipped with at least three spaces in a container body, wherein the aforementioned pharmaceutical composition container is further equipped with a cover, the portions between two adjoining aforementioned spaces are sealed, the aforementioned portions between two adjoining spaces open when force is applied thereto from the outside of the aforementioned pharmaceutical composition container, at least one of the aforementioned spaces is an apertured space having an aperture, a swallowing-aid substance is stored in a swallowing-aid substance chamber which is at least one of the aforementioned spaces, a pharmaceutical composition is stored in a pharmaceutical composition chamber which is at least one of the aforementioned spaces, and the portion on the aforementioned container body which forms the aforementioned apertured space is covered by the aforementioned cover. 
     
     
         2 . The pharmaceutical composition container described in  claim 1 , wherein the aforementioned cover is integrated with the aforementioned container body. 
     
     
         3 . The pharmaceutical composition container described in  claim 2 , wherein the aforementioned at least three spaces and the aforementioned cover are so arranged as to form one row, the aforementioned apertured space is positioned on one end of the aforementioned row, the aforementioned cover is positioned on the other end of the aforementioned row, the aforementioned container body and the aforementioned cover can be folded over, and folding over the aforementioned container body and the aforementioned cover brings the aforementioned aperture and the aforementioned cover into a state of facing each other. 
     
     
         4 . The pharmaceutical composition container described in  claim 1 , wherein an encapsulating item is stored in the aforementioned pharmaceutical composition chamber, at least the surface of the aforementioned encapsulating item melts in the ingredients of the aforementioned swallowing-aid substance, and the aforementioned encapsulating item contains the aforementioned pharmaceutical composition. 
     
     
         5 . A pharmaceutical composition container equipped with a plurality of spaces in a container body, wherein the aforementioned container body is provided with a predetermined aperture part in which an aperture is to be formed, the aforementioned aperture opens when force is applied from the outside of the aforementioned pharmaceutical composition container, thereby interconnecting the outside of the aforementioned pharmaceutical composition container with the aforementioned spaces, the portions between two adjoining spaces are sealed, the aforementioned portions between two adjoining spaces open when force is applied from the outside of the aforementioned pharmaceutical composition container, a swallowing-aid substance is stored in a swallowing-aid substance chamber which is at least one of the aforementioned spaces, a pharmaceutical composition is stored in a pharmaceutical composition chamber which is at least one of the aforementioned spaces, the aforementioned container body can be folded over, the aforementioned pharmaceutical composition container is further equipped with a cover that is disposed so as to adjoin the aforementioned container body, is integrated with the aforementioned container body and can be inserted into and pulled out of the portion on the aforementioned container body where the aforementioned predetermined aperture part is provided, and the aforementioned portion where the predetermined aperture part is provided is covered by the aforementioned cover.
