Abstract
A container comprises a molded tube having a cap portion attached at one of its ends by a break-away junction and a sealed closure at the other end of its ends. The closure is formed after filling the tube with a unit dose. A cord is attached at one end to the cap by a thickened portion used as an alignment guide when filling and at the other end to the closure, and the cap remains attached to the tube by the cord after breaking the break-away junction.
