Abstract

Structure for safely administering a medication orally in which a soluable medicated body is maintained on a rod during dissolution by the configuration of that portion of the rod embedded in the medicated body. A method of manufacturing an enlarged end for the rod comprises forming convolutions of coiled sheet material in which the sheet material is embossed before coiling. Handle means in angled relation to the rod and spaced from the medicated body prevents inadvertent swallowing of the medication and/or the rod. The handle means can be unitary with the rod or separable and reusable being made integral by a resilient gripping means.
