Hello how may I help you? I need to know how to open a child proof bottle' I can help with that request. Is this a prescription bottle or over the counter medicine? Over the counter Okay, do you see an arrow on the top of the bottle and an arrow on the lid of the bottle? I see two areas on the sides of the cap that are smooth, no arrows I see. Are there any marks on the top of the bottle or on the top of the lid? No You might not have a child proof bottle then. Simply try twisting the cap off. If that does not work, apply pressure to the lid and then turn. I squeezed the two smooth areas, bottle cap came off. Thank you You are welcome. I am glad you were able to open the bottle.
