This is a back translation, and I am unclear about these bottles that must be returned to the study site.

Thank you for clarifying.

Study drug vials (or bottles)
Explanation:
The drugs used in clinical trials are very closely monitored, because they are not yet approved for general use or sale. So if a patient withdraws from a study, s/he must return any unused drug to the study personnel to be destroyed. By requiring patients to return vials (for liquids) or bottles (for pills), the study personnel can make sure that all of the drug is accounted for.

Oh, I see. I think it just means that the patient has to return the drug, and the bottles it came in (including unopened bottles, empty bottles, and opened but not completely empty bottles).

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks, Amy. I understand all of that, but what distinction is being made here between бутылочки из-под исследуемого препарата, unused bottles and empties? The use of из-под seems odd to me.

Asker: Thanks, Amy. I suspect that perhaps a word is missing, too—right before "бутылочки должны быть возвращены" (partially used, open, something like that).
