Therapy compliance?
editthe lack of transparency of the package (a therapy compliance disadvantage)
Opaque packaging threatens therapy compliance? Can I get a citation, or is this generally considered common sense? I've never heard it before. Zenostortoise 02:12, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
- "Therapy compliance" sounds like horrible jargon to me anyway. Hopefully someone can put that bit into plain English. 86.132.140.45 (talk) 18:24, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Therapy compliance, taking the right medicine at the right time in the right quantity, is among others driven by recognizing the correct tablet or capsule. The recognision order of importnce is: the color/size/shape of the tablet or capsule; followed by artwork on the folding carton; followed by the product name. Transparent blister packs help compliance by product recognition. Michiel4 (talk) 21:18, 26 November 2012 (UTC)
What's missing here...
edit...is at least some mention of the fact that at least some blister packs (generally clamshells) are horribly difficult to open. For example, I recently bought an SD card and have found that, while hacking away with scissors (not exactly a safe process!) got me the card itself, getting at the warranty details inside the backing card was virtually impossible. They are often very hard to open, and this is worthy of mention; if I can find some suitable sources I may well add a little bit about this myself. Loganberry (Talk) 15:19, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
- You might find Consumer Reports' Oyster award a good starting place for sources (see this link) -- SiobhanHansa 15:51, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
- I usually carry a multitool but rarely effective shears. Perhaps the article should mention the wonderful efficacy of a saw, even the small saw in a multitool. Jim.henderson (talk) 04:57, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

why called a blister pack?
editi would expect the article to explain why it is called what it is called - i.e., a blister pack. i never know what people mean when they refer to a blister pack and still don't having read the article and seen the photograph. to me it's annoyingly excessive packaging environmentally and dificult to use. but then i'm a 50+ who probably takes at most one or two ibuprophin or azetaminiphen per year.--71.183.238.134 (talk) 21:24, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
Does blister give you any hints? The name seems pretty descriptive. 50.68.13.81 (talk)
