Abstract
A system for separately storing and sterilely mixing a diluent and a medicament within a dual chambered flexible container for eventual use in an I.V. administration system. Mixing of the contents of the two chambers is accomplished by compressing the sides of the flexible container thus causing a weakened portion in the partition between the two chambers in the flexible container to rupture, thereby providing fluid communication between the chambers and effecting intermixing of the contents thereof.
