Abstract
A pharmaceutical container having a body defining a chamber therein. The body includes a first end portion and a second end portion. A terminal end is included on the second end portion. A plug is positioned in the chamber defined by the body such that the plug is spaced from the terminal end. The plug and the body define a first chamber portion of the chamber between the plug and the first end portion of the body. The plug and the body define a second chamber portion of the chamber between the plug and the terminal end of the second end portion. The plug substantially fluidly seals the second chamber portion from the first chamber portion. The body is frangible at a position on the second end portion between the plug and the terminal end.
