A system for separately storing and sterilely mixing a diluent and a medicament within a dual chambered flexible container for eventual use in an I.V. administration system. Mixing of the contents of the two chambers is accomplished by compressing the sides of the flexible container thus causing a weakened portion in the partition between the two chambers in the flexible container to rupture, thereby providing fluid communication between the chambers and effecting intermixing of the contents thereof.

A device for separately storing and subsequently mixing a liquid and a medicament comprising: a container formed of flexible thermoplastic material and having at least one port; a partition seal dividing said flexible container, said partition seal spanning the interior of said flexible container to define first and second chambers within said flexible container, the partition seal being formed by a sealing together of opposing walls of the flexible container, said partition seal having at least one weakened section, the weakened section being a section of the partition seal of sufficiently reduced width in comparison to the remainder of the partition seal that the seal in the weakened section will fail under the force of manually generated pressures in the fluid; said first chamber containing the liquid in fluid communication with said port; said second chamber containing the medicament; whereby compressing the walls of said first chamber of the flexible container causes said liquid to rupture the weakened portion of said partition seal and mix the liquid and the medicament.
