Abstract: A child-resistant package includes a sealed blister positioned between opposed front and back paperboard sheets that are adhered to each other. The front paperboard sheet includes openings through which the blisters project, and the back paperboard sheet includes a tear strip overlying the blister and being movable in a linear direction to permit its separation from surrounding regions of the back sheet to thereby expose a rupturable backing strip of the sealed blister, there being no other blisters linearly aligned with the linear direction in which the tear strip is movable.
