Packaging for medicaments such as blister packs contain a plurality of recesses which hold contents. A lidding foil closes off the packaging and protects the contents. The contents such as tablets are pushed through the lidding foil whereupon the lidding foil breaks. The lidding foil features at least one conductive strip and the medicament packaging can be connected to a computer. On pushing the contents through the lidding foil, the lidding foil breaks and the computer recognizes the impulse emitted as a result of this action. The conductive strips contain, as current carrying fraction, an SnO.sub.2 /SbO.sub.3 hydroxide mixture on a mica substrate.
