Medicine Boxes for Pharmaceuticals in Paducah
Pill boxes serve the oral solid dosage pharmaceutical packaging category -- tablets, capsules, softgels, and lozenges that are packaged in either blister packs within cartons or bottles within cartons. The outer carton for both packaging formats carries the required Drug Facts panel (for OTC drugs) or prescription drug labeling, product identification, lot number and expiration date, and any additional required labeling.
Blister Pack Carton vs. Bottle Carton
Blister pack cartons contain the product in unit-dose blister cavities within the carton, providing per-dose tamper evidence and accurate dose counting. Bottle cartons contain a filled pharmaceutical bottle within the outer carton, with the outer carton carrying primary labeling. Each format has different packaging line requirements, consumer convenience implications, and regulatory considerations that affect packaging selection for specific pharmaceutical products.
Blister Pack Carton Pharmaceutical Packaging
Blister pack cartons contain thermoformed PVC or PVDC blister cards holding individual tablet or capsule doses. The blister card provides per-dose tamper evidence (each dose cavity is individually sealed), accurate dose counting without measuring, and product stability advantages for moisture-sensitive formulations. The outer carton displays the Drug Facts panel and provides the retail-facing brand identity. For OTC products where dose accuracy and product stability are priorities, blister packaging within a branded carton is the preferred format.
Pill Count Communication in Pharmaceutical Packaging
Tablet and capsule count on pharmaceutical packaging is a primary purchase decision factor -- the consumer evaluating two competing products considers unit count alongside price to calculate per-dose cost. Pill count should be prominently communicated on the principal display panel alongside the dosage strength. For comparison shopping effectiveness, the number of doses (days supply) may be more consumer-relevant than the pill count for products with multi-pill dosing.

Medicine Boxes in Paducah — FAQs
What are the standard pill count configurations for OTC packaging?
Common OTC tablet/capsule count configurations: 24-count (trial/travel size), 50-count (standard), 100-count (value), 200-count (large value), and 500-count (maximum size, professional/institutional). Count selection should reflect the target consumer's typical use duration and price sensitivity. Higher counts offer lower per-dose cost but require higher initial purchase investment.
What blister pack materials are used in pharmaceutical packaging?
Standard blister pack materials: PVC (polyvinyl chloride -- most common, economical, moderate moisture barrier), PVDC-coated PVC (polyvinylidene chloride coating adds moisture barrier for moisture-sensitive tablets), Aclar (PCTFE -- superior moisture barrier for highly moisture-sensitive formulations), and cold-form aluminum (maximum moisture barrier for highest-sensitivity products). The appropriate material depends on the tablet's specific moisture sensitivity and stability requirements.
What expiration date formats are required on pharmaceutical packaging?
FDA requires pharmaceutical product expiration dates on both the immediate container and the outer carton. Standard format: EXP MM/YYYY or Use by MM/YYYY. The expiration date must be in month/year format or month/day/year format -- year-only expiration dates are not acceptable. Lot number must accompany the expiration date for product recall traceability.
Can pill packaging accommodate child-resistant blister cards?
Yes. Child-resistant blister cards (push-through with peel-back option for senior populations, or non-removable backing requiring harder push-through) satisfy PPPA child-resistant requirements for oral OTC drug products in blister format. CR blister must pass PPPA protocol testing equivalent to CR bottle testing requirements.
