Childproof Medicine Bottles

Recently, my neighbor told me that her husband had to have surgery on his shoulder. After the operation, the doctor prescribed pain medication which he left on his bedside table in a “child-proof” bottle. Well, her 2 year old discovered the bottle and ended up opening it! Thankfully, her mom was right there to fish the pills out of her daughter’s mouth. That could have been devastating! So, this is a reminder....It is always a good idea is to lock medicines away to keep them out of children’s reach. And, make sure that all caps are properly closed. I guess some “child-proof” bottles really aren’t that “child-proof!”
