Opening medicines

It annoys some people that when they open a packet of tablets that the leaflet is in the way. It seems that the leaflet is always at the end that has the expiry date / lot number. :)

People should also read up about the relevance of expiry dates on their particular medicine or creams/ointments etc.

The leaflet is NOT in the way, its packaged like that to encourage you to read it as it contains valuable info about your meds.
