About Petals Primêre Funksje: Medikamintenferpakking

Boektekst: Petals is in multyfunksjonele medikamintenferpakking ûntwurpen foar âldere brûkers. De foarm is basearre op in blom mei sân blêden, wêrby elk blêd de dosis foar ien dei befettet. Elk blêd hat in printe nûmer om identifikaasje te ferienfâldigjen. In snijline op de sintrale skiif makket it mooglik om ien inkelde pil te ferwiderjen. As men in blêd ôfbrekt, skuort de foaly en wurdt in part fan it nûmer fernield, wat oanjout dat der dy dei noch in oare dosis nedich is. It transparante sintrum is in konvekse plestik plaat fol wetter, sadat it sintrum funksjonearret as in fergrutglês foar it lêzen fan de ynstruksjes.
