Like use a cheap brown paper bag and stick the label on that. Cheaper and much less plastic waste. If I wanted a pill bottle, I can buy my own.

    Paper is probably the worst material to protect drugs over any time frame other than using it in the next days. I’m not entirely sure what problem you are trying to solve.

    If it’s about how those bottles dispense the medicine, it sounds like a bit of a skill issue.

      perhaps concrete examples from the world of materials science might help lead the conversation in a more productive direction.

      aluminized paper is a better oxygen barrier than plastic and just as effective for keeping moisture out.

      And I am not trying to solve a problem, I am exploring the idea space around a shower thought.

        Moisture is only one issue.

        And you seem to be pretty stuck on paper. I see no value in trying to further understand what you are trying to convey.

        Have a day.
