Which OTC medication does NOT require child-resistant containers?

  1. Aspirin

  2. Vitamins

  3. Minoxidil

  4. Loperamide

The correct answer is: Vitamins

Child-resistant containers are designed to prevent children from accidentally ingesting medication. It's important for certain medications, like aspirin and loperamide, to be stored in child-resistant containers because they can be harmful or even fatal if consumed in large amounts by children. However, vitamins are generally safe and typically do not require child-resistant containers. Minoxidil is a topical medication and not commonly found in child-resistant packaging. So, the correct answer is B, as vitamins do not require child-resistant containers.
