Patent ID: 8662304

Claim:
A pharmaceutical package comprising: a housing; a card defining an opening and carrying at least one medication, wherein the card is slidably disposed at least partially within the housing such that the at least one medication carried by the card is positioned within the housing; an engagement member configured to engage the card by extending into the opening in an instance in which the card is disposed at least partially within the housing; and a twistable actuator defining an axis of rotation extending through a central portion of the twistable actuator and spaced apart from the housing, the twistable actuator configured to disengage the card and the engagement member in response to rotation of the twistable actuator relative to both the housing and the card and about the axis of rotation defined thereby, wherein the twistable actuator comprises a contact member configured to be rotated in response to rotation of the twistable actuator from a first position in which the engagement member extends into the opening defined by the card to a second position in which the contact member causes the card to be deflected such that the engagement member no longer extends into the opening defined by the card so as to permit the card to be slidably extended from the housing.
