A safety cap assembly including an over cap and a screw cap secured within the over cap. The over cap having a plurality of spaced downward lugs extending downward from the top wall of the over cap and the screw cap having a plurality of spaced upward lugs extending from the upper wall of the screw cap which correspond with the downward lugs in the over cap. The over cap has a plurality of spaced air passages passing through the top wall of the over cap. The screw cap has a side wall with internal threads and an air passageway that extends through the side wall and does not interfere with the internal threads. The air passageway in the screw cap is in fluid communication with the plurality of air passages in the over cap such that should the safety cap assembly be swallowed suffocation is prevented. Further, when the over cap is sufficient depressed and turned the downward lugs will engage the upward lugs and the safety cap assembly can be removed from a thread container and if the over cap is not sufficient depressed the downward lugs will slide over the upward lugs and the safety cap assembly cannot be removed.
A safety cap assembly for a threaded container which prevent suffocating if swallowed and requires depressing and turning in order to be removed from the threaded container, comprising:
