ABSTRACT:
A disposable medication package comprises a card (1) printed on one side and divided by fold lines (7,8,9 and 10) into panels (2,3,4,5, and 6). The panels (2 and 3) have windows (13, 15) which register with one another when the panel (2) is folded behind the panel 3. Likewise, the panels (5 and 6) have windows which register with one another when the panel (6) is folded behind the panel (5). The card has its unprinted side coated with a heat-sealable material. The two panels (2 and 6) have metal foils tacked to them and are provided on their surface with heat-sealable material. The package is made up by placing the card, printed side downwards, on a platen. Blister sheets (16, 21) are placed on the panels (3 and 5) so that their blisters protrude through the windows (13 and 15). Medication tablets are loaded into the blister cavities and the two panels (2 and 6) are then folded over the tops of the cavities so that the foils and blister sheets are sandwiched between the overlapping panels (2, 3 and 5,6). A hot platen is then pressed down on the assembly so that the heat-sealable materials fuses and adheres together the blister sheets, foils and panels. The package is then folded along the lines (8 and 9) to bring the blisters one panel (3) between the blisters of the other panel (5). A holder may be used to retain the package in its folded condition and to protect the rectangular zones of the foils exposed in the windows.
