CONTAINER FOR A PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION

Abstract:

A container for storing a pharmaceutical composition includes a body portion having an elastomeric material, and an inner lining having a thermoplastic material covering at least a portion of an inner surface of the body portion. The container forms an internal chamber for storing the pharmaceutical composition, where the internal chamber is bounded by the inner surface of the body portion. The inner lining provides a barrier between the elastomeric material and the pharmaceutical composition, thus protecting the pharmaceutical composition. Associated methods of storing the pharmaceutical composition within the container, as well as manufacturing the container, are also described.
