A child-resistant and senior-friendly unit dose package has a hollow container body, an internal divider, and at least first and second separate trays each carrying a plurality of tablets or like items for being dispensed from the container body. The container body has an end with an opening, and each tray can be slid to a retracted position in which the tray is located within the container body and a dispensing position in which the tray extends at least partially through the opening of the container body. The package includes a separate cap removably securable to the container body to seal the opening and prevent access to the trays. Multiple simultaneous manipulations are required to remove the cap from the container body thereby providing a child-resistant connection. A method of assembling a package with at least two separate blister cards and a divider is also disclosed.

Child-resistant, senior-friendly unit dose container

A child-resistant and senior-friendly unit dose package has a hollow container body containing a separate tray carrying a plurality of tablets or like items for being dispensed from the container body. The container body has an end with an opening, and the tray can be slid to a retracted position in which the tray is located within the container body and a dispensing position in which a proximal end part of the tray extends through the opening of the container body. The package includes a separate cap removably securable to the container body to seal the opening and prevent access to the trays. The container body can be positioned in a tray re-loading position that permits a spent tray to be removed from the container body and replaced with a new tray. Thus, the container body is reusable.
