Abstract
A container (20) includes a body (22) defining an interior and an opening (32) that leads to the interior. A cap (24) is removably affixed over the opening and is movable between a closed position and an opened position. The cap includes a front tab (52) having an undersurface (54). A child resistant closure in the form of a guard (56) having a depressible wall (58) is located on the body and is movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position. When in the engaged position the guard covers the undersurface of the front tab to prevent the cap from being moved to the opened position. When in the disengaged position the undersurface of the front tab is exposed, enabling the cap to be moved to the opened position.
