SAFETY CONTAINERS
CAN WEAR OUT
R
This new year we are most hopeful that
deaths -due to accidental taking of medicines
by small children will be drastically reduced.
The one major reason for this hope is the
increasingly widespread use of the new safety
containers for most medicines.
But, along with this major development
in pharmaceutical packaging comes a new dan-
ger. A false sense of security that the safety
cap will automatically stop accidents. But,
after prolonged use the closure mechanism on
the safety tops can wear out, Re aware Of this
and do not reuse these containers.
