Medical - Medical: Pharmaceuticals
Spanish term or phrase: Presentación
 Presentación

Estuche impreso conteniendo 10 ampollas x 4 ml cada una y un prospecto

dosage form no sería aquí lo correcto ¿no? -- presentation.. me suena muy mal.. ¿podría ser packaging?

I have found the following definitions so I am a little bit condused on what would be the correct translation for "presentación"...
Solid dosage formulations are the most important dosage forms for pharmaceuticals, e.g. tablets, capsules, granules, powders, sachets, reconstitutable powders, dry powder inhalers and chewables.

The dosage form is the physical form of a dose of drug. Common dosage forms include tablets, capsules, creams, ointments, aerosols and patches. Each dosage form may also have a number of specialized forms such as extended-release, buccal, dispersible and chewable tablets.

Thank you for your help!

Explanation:
I know you said you think this doesn't sound right, but it is used. Presentación is neither just dosage form nor just packaging, but the combination of the two.

Here's a European (UK) example in an SPC:

"Presentations:
10 mg:
1 vial with 467 mg powder for solution for injection and infusion
1 vial with 10 ml of water for injections"
[...]
Not all presentations may be marketed."
https://www.medicines.org.uk/emc/medicine/308

And a US one from a package insert:

16.1 How Supplied
Each product presentation includes a package insert and the following components:
Presentation.............Carton.....................Components
.................................NDC Number
Pre-Filled Syringe.....33332-316-01............• Ten 0.5 mL single-dose syringes fitted with a Luer-Lok™ attachment without needles [NDC 33332-316-02]
Multi-Dose Vial..........33332-416-10...........• One 5 mL vial, which contains ten 0.5 mL doses [NDC 33332-416-11]"

agree  neilmac: Sometimes it's hard to tell whether they mean presentation or the packaging per se...

  -> Thanks, Neil :) Yes, though in principle it should refer to the quantity and what form it's in, plus container if any, not just the packaging.
agree  Anne Schulz: Yes, presentation – a term I always have trouble with to find an adequate one-word-translation in German :-)
