Child-resistant blister pack

A child-resistant blister pack for enclosing one or more unit dosage forms, comprising in combination:

• a blister film sheet having one or more depressions extending from the plane of said blister film sheet, each depression being adapted to receive a unit dosage form, and said depressions arranged substantially linearly;
• a lidding sheet for sealably enclosing a unit dosage form within each said depression area;
• means for attaching said blister film sheet to said lidding sheet, while avoiding attachment to said depressions, thereby sealing each said unit dosage form within a selected depressions;
• entry access means, comprising a first line of weakening located between said rows of depressions and extending substantially from side to side of said blister pack, but short of the edge;
• a dosage unit containing one depression, each depression formed within a dosage unit defined by additional lines of weakening, said additional lines terminating short of the edge of said blister pack, said additional lines being substantially transverse to said first line, at least one corner of each said dosage unit having an unsealed portion between said lidding sheet and said blister film sheet, said unsealed portion being separate from said depression;
• and
• each dosage unit including a tear strip, defined by a third line of weakening, said third line starting at an interior corner of said unit and extending across a portion of said unit, but terminating short of an edge of said blister pack, thereby exposing for grasping an unsealed corner region of said lidding sheet upon removal of said tear strip.
