Abstract

The development of packaging is one of the complex decisions and an integral part within the modern packaging system. There are a number of basic requirements for Pharmacutical packaging. the pharmaceutical packaging must have the feature of child-resistant in a way that does not conflict with the ease of opening by the elderly and must be The packaging is sealed, and tamper-resistant packaging has been developed by children (sometimes called special packaging) in order to prevent young children from accessing a number of products that are dangerous to the child in any dose. As it is responsible for hundreds of thousands of accidents every year. the practical study of the research paper relied on the survey study to monitor recorded cases of drug poisoning, which was made available for study in some governorates within Egypt , and it also included a descriptive and analytical study of Pharmacutical packages secured against opening by children, which relied on modern techniques and methodology to secure Pharmacutical packages. Secondary, and the result of this analytical study of a number of packages was that these packages depended on the techniques of securing against opening by children by integrating two movements together in the design of the carton package to control the closing and opening system with consecutive intended movements in a specific synchronization, and these techniques were also able to provide a simplified mechanism for the process Opening a child under seven years old cannot perceive it in a short period of time
