Abstract

A child-safe packing for tablets, capsules and similar pharmaceutical products, with a blister pack (52) with at least one cup (64) to hold the tablets (60) sealed by a push-through cover film (66). Over the blister pack (52) fitted with an outer pack (50) is arranged an intermediate part (56). The cover film (66) of the blister pack (52) faces towards the intermediate part (56). Between the blister pack (52) and intermediate part (56) is arranged a first adhesive (70). The intermediate part (56) is partly covered by a removable separating part (57). A cover part (58) lies on the separating part (57). Between the intermediate part (56) and the separating part (57) is arranged a second adhesive (74). Between the intermediate part (56) not covered by the separating part (57) and the separating part (57) and cover part (58) is arranged a third adhesive (78). The third adhesive (78) has a lower adhesive force than the first adhesive (70) and the second adhesive (74) has a higher adhesive force than the first adhesive (70).
