Abstract:
A peelable pouch for containing a single dosage product P having a top layer joined to a bottom layer by at least one seal thereby creating a primary compartment . The primary compartment houses the product P, sealed from the exterior environment. The peelable pouch includes a tear promoting surface condition on the top layer and the bottom layer intersected by a fold-over line . When the pouch is folded about the fold-over line the tear promoting surface condition permits a user to easily tear off a portion of the pouch and expose a portion of the primary compartment allowing the product P to be removed from the pouch . Alternative embodiments incorporate a product retention edge that requires supplemental separation of the top and bottom layers to gain access to the product P, as well as a secondary compartment formed between the top and bottom layers.
