Patent attributes
A medicine container includes a child-resistant closure with a tamper-evident feature. The closure includes a plug adapted to be fixed to the container adjacent the open end. The plug has an access opening for enabling removal of material from the container through the open end of the container. A slide is supported on the plug for sliding movement in a first direction relative to the plug between a closed position in which the slide covers the access opening and an open position in which the access opening is uncovered. A child-resistant feature is interposed between the plug and the slide. The closure also includes a tamper-evident feature that permanently indicates breaking of the original seal of the container. The container may have a rectangular configuration including at least one surface large enough for a mailing address label; and a sealable window mailer envelope for receiving the medicine container.
