A pre-filled oral liquid disposable plastic container along with its storage means are provided to deliver medication to a patient in a easy to use and sanitary manner. The plastic container (20) includes a hollow bulb portion (22) on one end and a hollow stem portion (24) on the other. A bulbous flange (26) is integrally formed onto the distal end or the hollow stem, thus permitting comfortable insertion of the container into a patient's mouth. A specified quantity of liquid medication (28) is pre-filled into the container with the container sized appropriately. The plastic in the container is colored, thereby indicating the type of liquid medication, and permitting the medication to be colorless and still maintain its identity. All of the containers have a recognizable shape on the bulb portion, such as a cylinder with spherical ends for adult medicine, or in some shape attractive to infants and small children. A metallic foil closure (30) is attached to the distal end of the container for sealing the liquid medication within, and a tab (32) is included for ease of removal.
