I admit it....I am getting older and arthritis is beginning to make some of my finger joints hurt. It's not as easy to do some things as it was a few years ago. Damn. But, again, this is a small complaint compared to what many friends and neighbors have to face....so I'll just take another Aleve.
And I'll crab about trying to get one damn pill out of its childproof/senior proof special packaging. Oh sure....if I take off my glasses and look carefully there is a tiny little corner I'm supposed to bend so I can pull off the foil and the pill will magically pop out. Hah.
So I usually end up just stabbing the back cardboard facing with a tweezers, or small scissors or whatever else happens to be sharp and handy.
Who invented this less-than-consumer-friendly packaging anyway?
I totally agree with you Linn, the packaging isn’t arthritis friendly. I actually had a prescription for some meds that was to help me with the arthritis discomfort but it really didn’t help. My doctor okayed my using Tylenol Arthritis tablets, two in the AM and usually it helps me all day. I believe you can take up to four a day, but haven’t. Just thought I’d pass that on.
