The closure assembly comprises a first cap portion hingedly connected to a second cap portion adapted to be positioned over the mouth of an associated container and including an aperture to permit dispensing from the container. The first cap portion is arranged so that in one position it overlies the aperture to close the container, and in another position is lifted clear of the aperture to open the container. The cap portions together include means so that they can be snapped together and their separation from a closed to an open position requires the exertion of a positive force by the user and the first cap portion includes at its periphery opposite its hinged connection with the second cap portion a lip which co-operates with an inwardly displaceable section of the second cap portion. The inwardly displaceable section includes at its upper edge face adjacent the lip a portion which is associated with an outermost lower edge of the lip when the two cap portions are in a closed position and raised above that lower lip edge so that on inward displacement of the said section the raised portion first offers resistance to displacement in its engagement with the lip edge and then, as displacement pressure is increased, forces the lip upwards. In that manner the snap action of the two cap portions can be overcome and the closure opened.

A packaging element is provided for mounting blister strips containing a course of medication for a patient. The element comprises a lamina foldable along a straight line dividing the lamina into a supporting member and a backing member so that when the lamina is folded the one faces of the members lie adjacent. The element is characterized in that the supporting member is provided with a plurality of apertures for receiving the blisters of a plurality of blister strips when the blister strips are mounted on the one face of the supporting member so that the blisters project through the member and form a matrix in which the blister strips are aligned with the columns of the matrix, and the backing member is provided with a plurality of apertures arranged so that when blister strips are mounted on the supporting member and the lamina is folded the contents of the blisters may be removed through the backing member, the one faces of the members bearing a compatible pressure-sensitive adhesive capable of securing blister strips to the two members and of bonding together the one faces of the two members, the other face of the supporting member bearing or being adapted to receive in relation to each row of the matrix directions as to the day on which the contents of the blisters in the row are to be administered and further being adapted to receive directions in relation to each column of the matrix as to the time of administration of the contents of blisters in the column, the element further characterized in that it comprises one or more protective release sheets strippably adhered to the pressure-sensitive adhesive.
