Abstract: A medication container is disclosed having structure which is both resistant to interaction with stored medicine and protects the medicine from deterioration. The container maintains the stored medicine available for almost instant self-administration by thw user. Plating is preferably provided to inhibit interaction of the container and the medicine. Alternately, the container is made from a material which is impervious and inert to the stored medicine. The container is configured to accommodate the desired dosage of medication. The preferred container has efficient double sealing to further protect the medicine. The container preferably consists of two members which are selectively secured together by novel threads which require only a small amount of relative rotation between the members for connection and disconnection. The threads are plated and configured to achieve a smooth but tight fit and to avoid bonding or sticking between the threads when the container has been closed.
