Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This is a National Stage Application of International Patent
Application No. PCT/DE 2003/003229, with an international filing
date of Sep. 27, 2003, which is based on German Patent Application
No. 102 46 003.5, filed Oct. 2, 2002. The contents of both of these
specifications are incorporated herein by reference.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] 1. Field of the Invention
[0003] The invention relates to a suppository packaging device
comprising a package and a suppository arranged in a chamber of the
package, such as, for example, a rectal suppository.
[0004] 2. Description of Related Art
[0005] Suppositories are dry; inserting them without a lubricant is
difficult. The anus may be irritated. One therefore often uses
creams, which are not suitable for this purpose (fragrances etc.)
and are not always available.
[0006] Based on this, the object of the present invention is to
provide an improved suppository package with suppositories that can
be inserted more easily.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0007] The exemplary embodiments will be described in the following
figures:
[0008] FIG. 1 is a suppository package in which the suppository (1)
and the lubricant (2) are both stored in the same chamber.
[0009] FIG. 2 is a suppository package in which the suppository (1)
and the lubricant (2) are stored in different chamber of the
package.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0010] According to the invention, this object is achieved by
providing, in the same package, both the suppositories and the
lubricant.
[0011] In a first exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the
lubricant can be stored together with the suppository in a chamber
inside the package. In FIG. 1 the suppository was given the
reference sign 1 was given, the lubricant enveloping the
suppository was given the reference sign 2, and the package
providing the chamber for both the suppository 1 and the lubricant
2 was given the reference sign 3.
[0012] In the second exemplary embodiment, shown in FIG. 2, in
which identical components were given the same reference signs as
in FIG. 1, the suppository 1 and the lubricant 2 are located in
different chambers provided by a package 4. In this fashion, the
suppository is not impaired by the lubricant. In this case, the
chamber for the lubricant 2 is opened simultaneously with the
chamber for the suppository 1.
