A packaging system includes a vial with a rim about an upper open end, and a neck between a lower closed end and the rim. The vial contains a pharmaceutical product. A valve is disposed over the open end, and a crimp ring is disposed over the valve with an opening defining an access port. A detachable cap is disposed over the access port. A single tubular label is disposed about the vial, and extends only from a first edge aligned with the closed end to a second edge at the cap. The label has first and second sections separated by a single circumferential perforated boundary aligned with the neck. The first section is backed with an adhesive and attached to the outer vial surface, and extends between the closed end and the boundary. The second section extends at least between the boundary and the cap. |
