Foil strips for medication.

Don't struggle with the silver foil. Just push the pill out from the plastic side.

Some of the foil or the plastic is too tough to rely on just pushing the pill through from the plastic side, and some pills are very small, and so they are in a small plastic bubble which doesn't "bend" onto the pill as easily as a wider bubble does. Also, some people's fingers are more arthriticky than others!

Excellent!

I don't get cuts, but I struggle getting some of the pills out of the foil strips. Some are easy, and pop out no problem, but others, especially the prescription painkillers I take, take a real effort, and often snap in two in the process. I carry a small penknife with me and I've started using that to make a slice in the foil, and that makes popping them out much easier!

Slight derail you can recycle empty foil blister packs at Superdrug branches that have a pharmacy on site
