A device for containing a substance and adapted to release the substance into a vial comprising a container adapted to be supported on the vial having a cylindrical space adapted to contain the substance with a closing bottom connected thereto for closing the cylindrical space and retaining the substance. A piercing piston is slidably mounted within the cylindrical space of the container and provided with a lower piercing point for piercing through a weakness defined between the container and its closing bottom. A vertically and circumferentially extending groove is defined in the container within the circumferential space and a projection is defined on the piercing piston which in engaged within the groove. The groove and projection thus restricts the sliding motion of the piercing piston to permit the piercing piston to be slid downwardly to pierce through the weakness defined between the container and its closing bottom only when the piercing piston is at a selected predetermined rotational position so that its piercing point is positioned over the weakness.

A device for containing a substance and adapted for releasing the substance into a vial containing another substance comprising; a cylindrical substance container adapted to be supported on and enclose a top opening of the vial having a cylindrical space defined therein and including a top flange portion engageable around the top of the vial; a closing bottom connected to the bottom of said substance container for closing the bottom of said cylindrical space to contain the substance therein, said connection between said closing bottom and said container being substantially circular and including one weakened section at a selected circumferential location of the connection; a substantially cylindrical hollow piercing piston having a top cover wall vertically and circumferentially slidably engaged in said cylindrical space of said substance container, said piercing piston having a lower end extending in an angle with respect to said closing bottom, said lower end terminating at its bottom in a piercing point adapted for breaking said weakened section when said piercing piston is slid vertically downwardly through said weakened section; one of said container and said piercing piston including a groove facing the other of said container and said piercing piston having at least one circumferentially extending portion and at least one vertically extending portion; and a projection defined on the other of said containers and piercing piston engaged with said groove for confining the circumferential and vertical sliding of said piercing piston with respect to said substance container; one of said projection and said vertical portion of said groove aligned with said weakened section so that said piercing piston is slidable circumferentially to align said piercing point with said weakened section and, thereafter, slidable vertically to pierce said weakened section and release the substance within said substance container into the vial.
