Medicine Cups | Paper & Plastic
Medicine Cups are portion , soufflé , or measurement cups that are used for dispensing medications. They are small cups that often hold only 1 to 2 fluid ounces such as the Premier Plastic 1 oz cup. They are manufactured with plastic or paper and are disposable. Paper medicine cups are often used for dry medications. Plastic is the favorite for liquid medications. Small plastic medicine cups are more popular because they are usually transparent and have graduated measurements marked on the side. These graduated measurements make it easier to measure the correct dosage level. Paper souffle cups are most often used to dispense pills, tablets, capsules or dry powder medications while plastic cups are used to dispense liquid or dry medications. Below is a list of common medication dispensing cups.
