At the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, injection ampoules were introduced in Mexico and the United States having different perceptions from local pharmacists. While in Mexico the ampoules reception was favorable, in the United States they were received with disbelief. This caused important differences on ampoules production and popularization in the mentioned countries. The aim of this paper is to analyze the divergences and similarities within the kick off of processing injection ampoules in Mexico and the United States. It is evidenced that these processes were influenced by both therapeutic and drug manufacturing models of the time, which also determined most of main characteristics of the pharmaceutical profession in each nation.
