Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pharmaceutical protection technology, specifically a protective device for preventing microbial contamination of pharmaceuticals. Background Technology

[0002] When medicines are contaminated by microorganisms, they will deteriorate. In mild cases, the active ingredients will decompose and lose their efficacy; in severe cases, microbial decomposition may produce certain toxins, causing bodily reactions in patients, triggering diseases, or even endangering their lives. Existing medicine bottles have a simple structure and only serve the purpose of holding medicines. They cannot inhibit the growth of microorganisms when storing medicines, and it is difficult to control the number of tablets poured out. When too many tablets are poured out and then put back into the medicine bottle, it is easy to cause contamination. Therefore, we propose a protective device to prevent microbial contamination of medicines to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content
