Child-resistant caps are specially designed closures that help prevent young children from accidentally opening containers, particularly those that hold medications or hazardous substances. These caps require a specific method of opening, such as pushing down and turning, making it difficult for children to access the contents inside. These caps are commonly used on bottles of prescription medications, over-the-counter drugs, and household products like cleaning supplies. While they significantly reduce the risk of accidental poisoning, it is still important for caregivers to store these items out of reach of children to ensure their safety.
