A bottle having a modified neck and intended for use with a child-resistant
closure which allows the user to open the bottle without removing the
closure completely from the bottle is described. The neck includes at
least one locking lug and at least one anti-removal ring. The anti-removal
ring is positioned between the lug and the open end of the neck. The neck
may further include at least one deformation recess, with the deformation
recess being adjacent to and radially offset from the locking lug. The
ring and recess are intended to deter the user from bypassing the
child-resistant safety features of the bottle and removing the closure
completely from the bottle.
