Eye Drop Container Having Identifying Indicia
Provided is an eye drop container having superior identifying power. The eye drop container includes an identifying indicium including a shape, a pattern, a color or combination thereof imparted to a lateral face of a container body, and a further identifying indicium identical or similar to the identifying indicium imparted to a lateral face of a cap part which is detachably attached to a dispensing mouth of the container body, the indicia making it possible to identify the unity of the container body and the cap part. The container is packaged by a sealing label that renders these identifying indicia visible when the cap part is attached to the container body.

SMART CONNECTION INTERFACE
A method and apparatus for a connection interface between a reservoir or syringe, infusion set tubing, and an infusion pump is provided. The reservoir, a base and a cap are connected to form an integrated unit that is capable of being inserted and secured in an infusion pump housing. The cap and the infusion pump are each provided with at least one sensor or at least one detectable feature, arranged to interact with at least one corresponding detectable feature or sensor on the other of the cap and infusion pump device, to detect one or more of the presence, position or other characteristic of the cap when the cap is aligned or coupled with the infusion pump housing. The detectable feature and sensor may be magnetic, RF, mechanical, optical or any combination.

DUAL-CHAMBER PACK FOR PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS
The present invention relates to a dual-chamber pack with a first chamber comprising a container; and a second chamber comprising a reservoir, a biphasic connector, a plunger, and a plug with a breakable polymeric membrane. The container of the first chamber is prefilled with a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle and the reservoir of the second chamber is prefilled with a solid composition of an active ingredient, wherein the solid composition of the active ingredient is mixed with the pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle to form a liquid pharmaceutical composition upon activation of the dual-chamber pack.

DISPENSING CONTAINER
The present invention provides a dispensing container comprising a vessel, the vessel having: a formation and/or discrete element in or on the vessel which causes the centre of gravity of contents of the vessel to be positioned differently, when oriented in a lain-on-side attitude, from its notional position, in the absence of the formation or element in or on the vessel; an additional formation or discrete element in or on the vessel which, when the container is in the lain-on-side attitude, lifts at least a portion of the container away from a surface, wherein, when the container is in the lain-on-side attitude and has a first volume of content, the centre of gravity of the content biases the container to a first orientation, and when the container is in the lain-on-side attitude and has a second volume of content, the centre of gravity of the container biases the container to a second orientation, different to the first.

Liquid drug transfer devices employing manual rotation for dual flow communication step actuations
Liquid drug transfer devices employing manual rotation of a drug vial adapter with respect to a liquid container adapter for dual flow communication step actuation for establishing flow communication between a liquid container containing liquid contents and an initially intact, namely, non-punctured, drug vial. Manual rotation compacts a liquid drug transfer device along a longitudinal device axis for urging a puncturing tip through a drug vial stopper during a drug vial flow communication step for flow communication with a drug vial interior. Manual rotation also executes a liquid container flow communication step for flow communication with a liquid container, therefore establishing flow communication between a drug vial and a liquid container.
