Pediatric Medication Packaging-Child Resistant

In recent years, the approval speed of children's medicines in my country has been accelerating. According to statistics, in the first five months of this year, 34 children's medicines have been approved for marketing, and the number exceeds the same period last year. With the strong support of policies, my country's children's drug market will enter a period of rapid development.

Compared with adults, children are in the growth and development stage, and their liver and kidney functions are weaker in metabolizing drugs. If they take adult drugs, they are likely to cause adverse reactions and even be dangerous. In addition to the safety of children's medicines, the problem of poisoning caused by children's accidental ingestion of medicines also deserves our attention. Data show that 81.4% of drug poisoning is caused by children taking the initiative by mistake, and what is even more frightening is that 99% of young children can open ordinary medicine bottles cap within two seconds. Many tragedies could be prevented if medicines were packaged in child-resistant packaging.

Child-resistant packaging refers to a special packaging that prevents children from opening the package at will in a short period of time through a special design, so as to prevent them from accidentally ingesting medicines. Xinfuda has focused on the pharmaceutical packaging industry for more than 20 years, and its research and development of "a medicine bottle that can prevent children from opening at will" obtained a national patent in 2016 (patent number: ZL 2016 2 0079218.5). This kind of packaging adopts an inner and outer double-layer structure design. The bottle cap cannot be opened only by rotating it. It must be rotated while pressing down on the cap. This opening method involves applying force from two different directions at the same time, which is difficult for children in the growth and development period, and can prevent children from opening the package at will in a short period of time and reduce the risk of accidental ingestion.

At present, Xinfuda's child-proof bottle has reached in-depth cooperation with many domestic and foreign pharmaceutical companies, and the types of drugs used include tablets, capsules, oral liquids, suspensions, etc. For solid drugs, the lid integrates the functions of moisture-proof, anti-theft, and anti-child opening. It not only looks beautiful, but also improves the added value of the drug from the packaging. Universal caliber child-resistant caps can also be used with glass bottles. If there are special needs, exclusive customization services can be provided. We look forward to more medicines being packaged in this way to better protect children's safety.
