Guest guest Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 In my CS, they have it on my record to give me non-childproof containers. I always keep a few extra lids, though, in case they forget. Once in a while they do forget, but not often.

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 LOL, Stan! I bet he can't even cut his own meat and has to have Robin do it for him. (At one time, I had to have my husband do it for me.)

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Childproof containers are easy to handle. Just pass the bottle to any available five year old and they will have it open in nothing flat.

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 I get non-childproof caps on my med bottles which are easier to open. Also I put those spare lids in the drawer in case the pharmacy puts the bad ones on again. Debbie L > > In my CS, they have it on my record to give me non-childproof > containers.
