Using safety caps properly By Dr. Neil Solomon Dear Dr. Solomon: In trying to remove the cover from a container, I accidentally spilled most of its contents on the floor. I realize that children have to child-resista- nt be protected from inadver- tently taking f that g? medication can result in sen- - I ous illness or even death. But isnt there some way to make Dr. Solomon these containers easier to open? Mr. T.L. Dear Mr. L.: As you suggest, there has to be a trade-of-f between ease of oxning of bottles containing medication. and the need to protect young children whose curiosity may exceed their ability to reason. Since closures were introduced in 1974, there has been a significant reduction in the number of deaths due to accidental poisoning in children under 5 years of age. For example, poisoning from lye products decreased 50 percent, while accidental poisoning from such substances as sedatives, hypnotics, and narcotic analgesics dropped by 40 percent. Dr. Charles E. Myers, assistant professor of pharmacy at Virginia Commonwealth University, researched containthe problem of ers by interviewing 100 persons who represented the range of persons normally seen in hospital clinics. Forty-thre- e of the 100 reported they had accidentally spilled their medica child-resista- child-resista- nt tion at least once while opening the container; 20 had resorted to leaving the cap off once the bottle was open; seven put a different lid on the container; and 24 transferred their drugs to another receptacle. In all. Dr. Myers reported. 38 patients acted in such a way as to reduce or negate the original purpose of the safety cap. Significantly, 73 of the 100 people questioned had not been instructed by health-car- e personnel on how to open the containers. On balance, the figures indicate quite closures clearly that have been successful in reducing the number of accidental deaths from poisoning among children. Possibly if health-car- e personnel took the time to explain the purpose of the containers and the proper way of opening them, patients and their families would have less difficulty in using them safely and correctly. Dear Dr. Solomon: My son tells me he is taking Antabuse to cure his drinking problem, and I would like to know how this works. Mrs. B.H. Dear Mrs. H.: Antabuse is the trade name for a drug, disulfiram. It is not a cure for alcoholism, but can help discourage drinking while the patient also receives other forms of treatment, such as psychotherapy. A person with a drinking problem takes Antabuse daily. If he also drinks, he knows that the combination of Antabuse and alcohol will cause severe headaches, nausea and similar unpleasant symptoms. Because of the potential severity of thee symptoms, patients are screened by a physician before the drug is prescribed. child-resista- child-resista- trip over.

DEAR HELOISE: Any man who does a lot of traveling via airlines has trouble keeping his shoes polished because usually there isnt room to pack shoe polishing equipment. And. if he polishes extra pairs of shoes before he leaves, very likely the polish will rub off onto the rest of his clothes. So. I started stuffing each shoe into an old pair of nylons.
