A container for enclosing a sterile medical solution and method for mixing the same, such as a peritoneal dialysis solution. The container comprises a first compartment comprising the major part of the solution, such as an electrolyte solution comprising NaCl, CaCl.sub.2, etc., and two separate compartments, each comprising glucose in a high concentration. The entire container is autoclaved including the solutions as separated, thereby minimizing the formation of toxic products. During preparation for use, the second compartment or the third compartment, or both, are connected to the first compartment by breaking pins in a connection tube for each compartment. Depending upon the compartments connected to the first compartment, a different concentration of glucose results. Thus, all three of the usually employed glucose concentrations may be provided in a single container.

[ We claim:] [1.] A container for sterile medical solutions including glucose, said container comprising a front side, a back side, a top border and a bottom border, separation means joining said front and back sides of said container so as to create at least first, second and third compartments within said container, said first compartment hang a sufficient size to accommodate said sterile medical solution including glucose and including an electrolyte solution, said second and third compartments including high concentration glucose solutions, a first openable connector for selectively connecting said first and second compartments upon opening said first openable connector in order to mix said glucose solution in said second compartment with said electrolyte solution in said first compartment, and a second openable connector for selectively connecting said first and third compartments upon opening said second openable connector in order to mix said glucose solution in said third compartment with said electrolyte in said first compartment, whereby a sterile medical solution including glucose can be produced in said first compartment with the least three different selected concentrations of said glucose therein.
