Abstract
A method for treating gelatin capsules so that the end product resulting therefrom may be insertable through a body orifice for application of a measured dose of medicinal material to an area to be treated is disclosed. The method provides for the relative hardening and softening of respective portions of the capsule so as to allow the capsule to perform the desired function. Means are provided with the capsule to permit rupturing of the end of the capsule to allow the medicinal material to be discharged therefrom upon the application of pressure at the other end of the capsule.
