At present, the tablet and medicine bottles on the market are mainly made of plastic materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, etc. The following four aspects can be considered when choosing:

1. Production materials

The raw materials of pharmaceutical packaging must meet the requirements of non-toxic and odor-free. There are many types of raw materials available on the market, which requires evaluation of the comprehensive performance of the raw materials.

2. Tightness and permeability

Tightness and water vapor permeability are two important technical indicators of pharmaceutical plastic bottles such as tablet medicine bottles, which play a vital role in the stability of the drug inside.

3. Stability and compatibility

For the selection of packaging for tablets, especially for new drugs, a loading test should be carried out first to examine the stability of the loading and the compatibility between the packaging and the drug. The mutual penetration, dissolution, adsorption, chemical reaction, and denaturation of drugs and packaging materials must be determined through scientific testing.

4. Product quality standards

From the manufacturer’s product quality standards, the pros and cons of product quality can be analyzed and judged, and the comprehensive strength of the manufacturer can also be reflected from the side.

The choice of tablet medicine bottle can be comprehensively considered from the above four aspects, and the above principles are also applicable to the choice of other pharmaceutical packaging.
