What is ampules?

Ampules are small glass or plastic containers that are sealed by a cap, containing a small amount of liquid or powder substance for medical uses. They are generally used for storing medications that need to be maintained in a sterile and secure state. Ampules are made in different sizes and are resistant to moisture, gas, and other environmental factors that may cause contamination. They are usually broken open to withdraw the contents, which are administered through injections or other forms of medical treatment. Ampules are typically labeled with the name of the drug, dosage, and other important information to assist in proper administration.
