Which of the following drugs does NOT require a Child Resistant Container (CRC)?

  1. Nitroglycerine SL

  2. Mebendazole > 600 mg/pkg

  3. Inhalers not specified as aerosols

  4. EES tablets > 20 g

The correct answer is: Nitroglycerine SL

Child Resistant Containers (CRCs) are designed to prevent children from accessing dangerous medications. In this question, option A, Nitroglycerine SL, is the only drug that does not require a CRC. This is because Nitroglycerine SL is a sublingual medication, meaning it is dissolved under the tongue, and is not considered a potential hazard for children. Options B, C, and D all meet the criteria for being potentially hazardous to children and therefore require a CRC. Mebendazole in dosages exceeding 600 mg per package, non-specified aerosol inhalers, and EES tablets exceeding 20 g all have the potential to harm children and thus require a CRC.
