safety caps

Medication container locks

Safety caps are childproof closures on medication bottles and household chemical containers, designed to prevent accidental poisoning.

They typically require pressing down while turning, or some other two-step action that young children lack the coordination to perform: I can never get these safety caps off.

Ironically, they often frustrate adults, especially the elderly.
