A suspendable, medical liquid container comprising: a molded, one-piece plastic body including a bottom for engaging a support surface and by which said container is suspended, said bottom including spaced protuberant base sections, extending transversely along opposed peripheral sides of said bottom, and having a horizontal plane across bottom surfaces of these protuberant base sections, said protuberant base sections having inner margins which merge together smoothly on a gentle arc providing an arcuate outer surface defining a concave indentation in the body''s bottom wall; a flexible web joined to the body along a medial line between the base sections; a tab connected to the web and having an opening therethrough and an end latch section immediately outwardly of this opening; said arcuate outer surface extending across the tab''s width so the tab can take on a slight concave curve when held in the indentation by the latch section and generally follow the arcuate contour of the indentation for compact containment of the tab in the indentation; at least one latchlug disposed between the protuberant base sections and projecting smoothly from the medial hinge line with generally triangular sidewalls and a bottom wall of the lug being integral with an outer undercut lip disposed slightly above the hinge line for releasably holding the latch section of the tab above the horizontal plane across the protuberant base sections.
