An improved container closure delivery system that is suitable for lyophilized pharmaceutical injectable powder products is disclosed. The system comprises storage stable powder formulations and a container closure assembly design wherein the formulation can be filled and lyophilized with a standard fill finish equipment, and the formulations and lyophilization processes are optimized to produce a powder that readily dissolves upon contact with a diluent, thereby facilitating the direct injection of the lyophilized product without the need for a separate reconstitution/mixing/priming step.
