A lockable medicine container includes a canister having a closed bottom end, an opposite top end defining an access opening, a surrounding wall between the bottom end and the access opening, and an interior volume within the surrounding wall. A radially inwardly extending ledge protrudes from the surrounding wall along at least a portion of a perimeter of the access opening. A lid is removably covering the access opening on the top end. A locking ring is rotatably and non-removably secured to the lid and is rotatable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The locked position is when the locking ring is engaged with the ledge to prevent removal of the lid from the canister. The unlocked position is when the locking ring is disengaged from the ledge to allow removal of the lid from the canister. A lock member is connected to the locking ring to permit selectively moving the locking ring between the locked position and unlocked position.
