Abstract
The present invention is a protective system for a plurality of pills contained within a blisterpack. It includes a plurality of hollow modules formed of a non-flexible plastic material, each hollow module having a sufficient size and shape to fit over individual blister-contained pills in the blister pack, and a plurality of spacing bars connecting the plurality of modular hollow modules. The hollow modules may be arranged in predetermined geometric patterns linearly or in an x-axis, y-axis plane to coincide with the pattern of blisters of a blisterpack so as to fit over the blisterpack for packaging and shipping to prevent breakage and damage to the blisters and the pills contained therein.
