Abstract
A container supplies a medicinal formulation that includes a hydrophilic polymer and an active agent capable of bonding to the polymer. The container includes a first compartment for storing the polymer and a second compartment fluidly isolated from the first compartment for storing the active agent. A frangible barrier is shared between the compartments. A fluidic outlet is disposed on the container to dispense the medicinal formulation. Dispensing of the medicinal formulation includes rupturing the frangible barrier, mixing the polymer and active agent together to form the medicinal formulation, and administering the medicinal formulation provided from the fluidic outlet to a patient. The polymer can be PEG, while the active agent can be magnesium.
