Like use a cheap brown paper bag and stick the label on that. Cheaper and much less plastic waste. If I wanted a pill bottle, I can buy my own.

    Anyone could then tamper. These bottles are there for your safety and for those around you. It allows the product the be tracked in a recall. Regulations are usually there because of stuff like this.

      Most pharmacies don’t fill prescriptions with tamper evident bottles. Perhaps you are thinking of the containers directly from the manufacturer?

        Agree. Never have received tamper evident packaging from a pharmacy. what’s the point? They’re filled in front of me and handed to me.

        Yours maybe.
        Mine bottle caps are sealed.
        And the bottle has a aluminium seal on top (and it takes a knife or a pocket knife to puncture that. I tried with a finger. It hurt)
