Package design helps keep the patient first
|

Understanding the thermal and time challenges temperature-sensitive medications will experience are critical to making an informed decision as to how to protect them against degradation. The expected thermal exposure that the temperature-sensitive medication will experience defines the capabilities needed by the temperature control system to provide the necessary level of protection.

|
|
Will U.S. consumers soon be able to buy popular prescription drugs over the counter, such as cholesterol-lowering medications? Time will tell.

Lip balm redesign 'fuels femininity'
|
|
Introduced in the 1980s from The Mentholatum Co. as a cosmetic alternative to traditional lip balm products, the Softlips brand of lip conditioners was a big hit with teens upon its launch, but as its customers aged, so did its blister-carded packaging. Now Mentholatum has updated the look of Softlips to appeal to a more contemporary and sophisticated female consumer, trending toward natural expression.
