Abstract

The invention relates to a method for weighing pharmaceutical containers (10) nested in a carrier (11), in which at least one of the nested containers (10) is weighed by means of a weighing device (1), wherein a relative movement between the at least one pharmaceutical container (10) and the carrier (11) is brought about in order to release the pharmaceutical containers (10) from the carrier (11) in order to increase the weighing accuracy.
