Petals
Petals is a multifunctional medication packaging designed for older users. The form is based on a flower with seven petals, and each petal holds the dose for one day. Every petal carries a printed number to aid identification. A cutting line on the central disc allows a single pill to be removed. Breaking a petal tears the foil and destroys part of the number, which indicates that another dose is still due that day. The transparent centre is a convex plastic sheet filled with water, so the centre works as a magnifying glass for reading the instructions.
