Child-proof caps...
Child-proof caps, that adults cannot open! I used to joke about senior citizens who have to get their grand-kids to open the child-proof caps that they cannot open.Two weeks ago, my cardiologist wanted me to change the medicine I'm using for hypertension. She gave me a sample bottle and the office gave me a coupon for the first month free.
It's a recent product and no generic is available. The pharmacy said it's $840 a month without insurance and $45 with. Ouch... as the one I was previously using was covered by insurance with a 'zero' co-payment.
Most of my medicines require a dosage of 1 time per day, this one is twice a day, but starting off, it regulates my pressure to normal with only one a day and that's a plus!
The sample has a childproof cap that requires pressing and squeezing but, the 'sawtooth' cap clicks and doesn't open without some great amount of force to open.
Enough of that... I'm putting them in a different bottle.

The refill from the pharmacy had a normal childproof cap with the side lock.
If it happens again, I'll try your suggestion.
