Abstract

A child resistant card for dispensing one or more pills, e.g., capsules and/or tablets, including a closure part and a push-through part attached by a fold region, in which the closure part includes a blister hole and a perforated front push-through tab, and the push-through part includes a perforated pill push-through tab and a perforated back punch tab is provided. Upon folding at the fold region, the perforated front push-through tab is aligned over the perforated back punch tab. The child resistant card further includes a blister pack including a blister having an outlet and a penetrable backing portion, wherein the outlet of the blister is covered by the penetrable backing portion to create a closed blister and the pill is located inside the closed blister, wherein the blister pack is located between the folded closure part and push-through part such that the blister protrudes through the blister hole. The child resistant card also includes a separate pick and place part including a removable tab that is located between the blister pack and push-through part such that the removable tab prevents removal of the pill through the penetrable backing portion and the perforated pill push-through tab, wherein the pill can be dispensed from the child resistant card by removing the removable tab and applying force to the blister such that the pill is concomitantly pushed through the closure part and the penetrable backing portion pill push-through tab.
