Under federal packaging law, which dispensed product may routinely be supplied in a non-child-resistant container without any request from the patient or prescriber?
a.Amoxicillin 250 mg/5 mL oral suspension
b.Sublingual nitroglycerin 0.4 mg tablets
c.Lisinopril 10 mg tablets
d.Ibuprofen 600 mg tablets
Explanation
Sublingual nitroglycerin is a listed exemption from child-resistant packaging because a patient having chest pain must be able to open the container immediately. The other three products require child-resistant packaging unless the patient or prescriber specifically requests otherwise, and a patient waiver may be kept on file for that request.
