Un mouvement vertical de la forme posologique est ainsi limité par la zone protubérante (11), ce qui réduit le risque de détérioration de la forme posologique par l'agitation de l'emballage-coque (10). Ce dispositif est utile pour l'emballage de formes posologiques pharmaceutiques fragiles formés in situ à l'intérieur de la cloque (9), telles que des formes posologiques lyophilisées ou des formes posologiques orales à dissolution rapide.
