From the context, it appears the sources above and your text are referring to the same thing (i.e., "one dose in each vial"). As is often the case, one language can be "wordier" (or less concise)than another (in conveying precisely the same message).

Since it appears to refer to the color, it might be a good to include such a reference (e.g., amber-colored vial).

vial topacio = an amber-colored vial / an amber vial
