Embodiment Construction

[0012]Referring now to FIGS. 1, 2A and 2B, a child resistant blister package according to one embodiment is shown generally at 10. The blister package 10 comprises a blister card 12 and a housing 14 for containing the blister card 12. The housing 14 has an opening 16 at one end thereof through which at least a portion of the blister card 12 can be pulled out and exposed to dispense contents. The blister card 12 and the housing 14 comprise a releasable restraining mechanism to restrict the exposure of the blister card 12 through the opening 16 of the housing 14.

[0013]The blister card 12 is of conventional construction and comprises a plurality of blisters or containers which are illustrated schematically at 18. The contents of blisters 18 on blister cards 12 are typically used for packaging pharmaceutical products such as tablets, capsules, pills, ampoules but may also be used to for packaging other products such as candy, chewing gum, lozenges or other relatively small items which a...

The danger of unsupervised consumption of drugs is undisputed. Small children are particularly exposed to this risk especially when drugs are left lying around or are otherwise accessible to them. Further, the bright colors often used for the contents of such blister cards can be attractive to children and make the contents of the blister cards have a candy appearance.[0003]Accordingly, there is a need to provide an imp...
