Abstract
An ever higher occurrence of accidental poisoning in children caused by drugs and other poisonous substances have lately brought about much activity towards developing adequate packing of drugs and other dangerous substances so as not to allow opening by children. In this connection a bill was put before the United States Senate in 1968 concerning the packing of drugs and similar substances dangerous to children. This paper gives data on author's own efforts towards solving this problem in the UK; author's observations on some of the closures available at present, and the characteristics which we considers constitute a successful child-proof closure.
