This invention is method of manufacturing of child-resistant and tamper-evident packaging container, which the cap having a tamper-evident feature on the top and a press-tab on the side wall. This cap provides both tamper-evident and child safety features to warn and protect consumers as well as dispensers such as: pharmacists, hospitals, medical centers, and manufacturers that the containers have not been opened and accurately reflect the number of pills in the container. The cap's distinctive feature enables the pharmacist and medical staff or provider to securely fasten by rotating it clockwise, while the patient turns the cap counterclockwise to open it for the first time. However, this process will break off the tamper-evident feature away from the outside cap, which indicates tampering and exposes the upper surface of the inner lid, where additional marking displays, i.e., “OPENED” to warn of tampering. The cap continues function a child-resistant container thereon.
