Injection is one of the most common drug dosage forms. COP vial bottle and ampoule bottle are both the packaging of injection preparations, but they are very different in shape, material and use.
COP vial Bottle: This is a small bottle sealed with a rubber plug. It used to be made of glass, but with the advent of advanced materials, it is gradually replaced by a better COP material. The bottle neck part is thin, the thickness below the neck is the same, the bottle mouth is slightly thicker than a bottle neck, slightly thinner than the bottle body. Generally used for medicinal injection bottles, oral liquid bottles, freeze-dried powder injection, because early mainly used to contain penivial, so called "vial bottle".

Ampoule: A slender, sealed, thin glass vial, often used to store drugs, vaccines, serums, etc., for injection. The most common is the medical, intravenous drip with drugs are generally ampoule. Ampoule bottle is sealed in one body, ampoule bottle needs to be broken when using, the fracture is sharp and easy to hurt, so it is classified as "injurious medical waste" in "Medical waste Classification Catalogue", after use should be directly put into the yellow medical sharp instrument box.
The above are the main characteristics and differences between the two. In addition, the price of COP vial bottle is higher than that of ampoule bottle, and the drugs contained are mostly anti-cancer, anti-tumor, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular biological agents, so the added value of drugs is relatively high. This package can be used for drugs with a PH value greater than 9 or for drugs with high protein levels.
