Baby-Proofing Medicine Bottles and Getting Old
Baby-Proofing Medicine Bottles and Getting Old
- A humorous realization about aging and medicine packaging.
The Medicine Bottle
- In November 2024, I spent about a full minute trying to line up the arrows on a child-resistant prescription medicine bottle to open it.
- After struggling to find the arrows, it dawned on me that I specifically request all my prescription drugs to be filled without baby-proofing caps.
- The incident served as a funny reminder of getting older and having a brief lapse in memory.
