Medicine bottle cap

81 devices · GMDN 16617

Medicine bottle caps are protective covers designed to seal the opening of prescription or over-the-counter medication bottles, preventing contamination, spills, or tampering. They often include child-resistant features like push-down or twist mechanisms to ensure safe access, particularly for households with young children.

These caps are typically reusable and made from durable materials like plastic, sometimes with integrated seals or liners. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified as low-risk medical devices due to their simple design and non-invasive use. Availability depends on local healthcare standards and pharmacy practices.
