  • Patent number: 5323907
    Abstract: The present invention includes a package assembly which comprises a blister package and a surrounding frame having a child resistant feature. The blister package includes a blister sheet having blisters that form recesses adapted for receiving medications and a lidding sheet overlying the face of the blister sheet for enclosing medications in the blister recesses. The surrounding frame is designed for receiving and supporting the blister package and is made up of first and second panels. The apertures in each panel are correspondingly arranged so as to overlap in an opposing face-to-face relation. The apertures in the second panel are configured to partially obstruct the corresponding aperture in the first panel. The partial obstruction thereby forming a protective device to impede unwanted removal of medication from the blister package in a child resistant fashion.
