ABSTRACT:
A tamper resistant, tamper evident container is formed of a vial having a barb or hook formed inside the open upper end, a cap adapted for insertion into the vial having a mating hook formed about the lower edge, and sealing rings formed on the outer surface thereof for providing tamper-resistant, leak-proof sealing between the enclosure and the vial. The enclosure or cap also includes a spout which may extend inwardly into the enclosure or outwardly, away from the enclosure. In a preferred embodiment, the spout has an integral seal member defined at the top or bottom thereof by a circumferential line of reduced thickness for facilitating separation of the seal member from the spout. Preferably, a liquid-proof identification label is used which is placed inside the vial prior to closure. This label may include temperature sensitive indicia which change colors at selected temperatures, for example, above and below the normal body temperature, for providing additional proof of non-tampered, strictly human-origin contents.
