BLISTER PACKAGE

摘要

A child-resistant multi-step tear-access blister package having at least on e product well containing a product. The product is accessed by tearing the blister package from a peripheral edge toward the product well. A step in addition t o tearing is required to access the product, thereby elevating the cognitive skill necessary to access the product above those of a typical small child. In the disclosed exemplary embodiment, the additional step involves weakening a tear-resistant channel blocking a tear path from the peripheral edge of the package to the product well. Mor e particularly, initial tearing of the package toward the product well is interfered with by the presence of the tear-resistant channel interrupting the tear path. Th e tear-resistant channel may be bent or snapped to permit tearing therethrough and to permit continued tearing of the blister package toward the product well to access t he product.
