ABSTRACT:
A system for simultaneously rupturing and carrying away a breakable foil seal and packing from a medicine vial or other container which incorporates a string attached to the foil seal with one end exterior of the foil seal and the other attached to the packing. The exterior end serves as a pull tab or can be attached to another item which serves the same purpose. When pulled, the string first ruptures the foil seal, then carries it away along with the packing. The pull tab may be length of string, additional foil layers of the seal or the vial lid. The system is designed to facilitate access to the contents of the vial by individuals lacking dexterity due to age, illness or amputation.
