In the case of pharmaceuticals, packaging has moved from being the last step in the production chain to influencing the whole product design process, bounding a series of strict production standards. Why is the primary packaging of a medicine important? The primary packaging encounters the product, and its function is not only to be able to contain, protect or transport the medicine. Above all, packaging preserves the product, guaranteeing its quality throughout the self-life period. Furthermore, the choice also depends on the type of use and market demands. The typology of packaging and its material is of fundamental importance both for the pharmaceutical company that use it and for the patient. The chapter presents an abacus with the principal pharmaceutical form and packaging types.
