There are two components to the mix-o-vial: the top chamber holding water, or some other solute, and the bottom chamber holding the medication, usually in a powder. There's a rubber stopper between the two chambers, with a small needle at the bottom of the top chamber. To activate the mix-o-vial, you squeeze the top and bottom together.
