A collapsible medical agent container (10) is disclosed having walls (34, 36, 38) defining a plurality of chambers (12, 14) for containing selected quantities of one or more medical fluids or a dry or encapsulated drug or other reagent in separate sealed condition. Opening means which communicates between adjacent chambers (12, 14) for passage of fluid from one chamber to another, is normally closed by frangible closure (18) which maintains the chambers (12, 14) in separate hermetically sealed condition until flow between the chambers (12, 14) is needed. The frangible closure (18) has an elongated relatively rigid portion (20) which extends into one of the chambers and is disposed within a protective retentive tube (24), and a relatively weakened portion (22) adjacent the opening means. The closure (18) is manually openable from exterior the container (10) to permit flow between the chambers (12, 14), such as for mixing, by grasping the elongated portion (20) through the walls (30, 32) of the container (10) and bending it until the relatively weakened portion (22) is fractured.

A container for storing medical agents and the like in separate chambers, said container comprising: flexible plastic walls selectively sealed to define a plurality of adjacent chambers; a connecting port communicating between a pair of said chambers; opening means in one of said chambers for permitting agent flow from said chamber and out of said container; frangible closure means preventing agent flow through said connecting port to maintain said adjacent chambers in separate sealed condition, said frangible closure means being manually openable from the exterior of said container to permit agent flow between said adjacent chambers; and retention means sealed within said connecting port, frictionally restraining said frangible closure means and preventing said frangible closure means from migrating within said adjacent chambers after the opening of said frangible closure means.
