Hexagonal safety container

A hexagonal packaging unit, comprising:

• a container adapted to hold contents, wherein the contents are one or more of a pharmaceutical composition or medical devices;
• a lid pivotally connected and configured to slidably rotate on a pivot and engage a top of the container, wherein the lid is rotatable in a first direction between a closed position resulting in the lid covering an opening in the container, and an open position resulting in the opening of the container at least being partially open;
• a first latch portion associated with the lid comprising a first lip and a first release lever located at a first side of the first latch portion and a second lip and a second release lever located at a second side of the first latch portion opposite from the first side;
• and
• a second latch portion associated with the container positionable to engage the first latch portion when the lid is in the closed position, and disengage when the lid is in the open position,
• wherein the second latch portion associated with the container further comprises a first shoulder located at a first side of the second latch portion, and a second shoulder located at a second side of the second latch portion opposite from the first side,
• wherein, when the first latch portion engages the second latch portion, the first lip of the first latch portion abuts the first shoulder of the second latch portion and the second lip of the first latch portion abuts the second shoulder of the second latch portion, and
• wherein as a result of the first release lever being pressed towards the second release lever and the second release lever being pressed towards the first release lever, the lid unlocks, resulting in the first latch portion disengaging from the second latch portion.
