Abstract

A child-resistant package for pharmaceutical articles includes a blister pack having a product casing layer defining blisters, a foil closure layer enclosing articles in the blisters and a reinforcing layer preventing dispensing of each article until an access mechanism is used. Each access mechanism includes a puncturing element of the product casing layer and a tear-away element of the reinforcing layer defined by a perforation line. The puncturing element includes a pointed portion for separating a first end of the tear-away element. Application of pulling force to the first end further separates the tear-away element to expose the foil layer adjacent the blister for dispensing the article. According to one embodiment, the package includes an outer jacket having a mounting portion receiving the blister pack and a cover movable with respect to the mounting portion between opened and closed positions.
