Abstract
The device for separately storing a substance, such as a medical or pharmaceutical active substance, and a liquid, and for mixing the same prior to use, comprising a first receptacle containing the liquid, a second receptacle that contains the substance and has a bottom to be opened so that the substance passes into the liquid, and comprising a means that can be advanced in order to apply a force to the bottom of the second receptacle such that the bottom is opened, is characterized in that the second receptacle is a blister pack which is mounted inside or on the first receptacle. The substance is thereby sealed within a housing that has a preferably flat bottom and a substantially cup-shaped or blister-shaped upper chamber wall. The flat bottom is torn open in order to release the substance, with the chamber wall being preferably turned upside down through the bottom.
