Most countries have moved to patient packs in blister packaging, because there is less room for error by the pharmacist, or by the patient (who has 8 different meds all in amber coloured bottles)
The US however, passed laws in the early 70's requiring child resistant bottles, and the laws have never been altered to take into account the fact that blister packs are intrinsicly child resistant
