A container includes a body defining an interior and an opening that leads to the interior. A cap removably affixes over the opening to move the container between an opened position and a closed position. A child resistant closure moves between an engaged position and a disengaged position, and prevents moving the container from the closed position to the opened position when in the engaged position.

1. A container, comprising: a body defining an interior and an opening that leads to the interior;a cap that removably affixes over the opening to move the container between an opened position and a closed position, wherein the cap is pivotally affixed to the body by a hinge; anda child resistant closure comprising: a guard extending outward from the body, adjacent to the opening;a support frame extending from an inner surface of the guard towards the body;a protrusion extending from the support frame towards the inner surface of the guard; anda catch extending from an underside of the cap, the catch having an aperture therein, the child resistant closure being movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position, the child resistant closure preventing movement of the container from the closed position to the opened position when in the engaged position, the engaged position comprising disposal of the catch in a space between the support frame and the inner surface of the guard, wherein the protrusion mates with the aperture, wherein the engaged position is movable to the disengaged position by applying radially inward pressure on the guard, causing the guard to deform from an initial position to a depressed position, thereby disengaging the protrusion from the aperture and thus placing the child resistant closure in the disengaged position, the guard being naturally biased radially outward in its initial position such that release of the pressure on the guard permits the guard to return to its initial position, the cap comprising a front tab having an underside configured for lifting the cap to move the container from the closed position to the opened position, wherein when the container is in the closed position and the guard is in its initial position, the guard blocks access to the bottom surface of the front tab thus preventing a user from lifting the front tab to move the container to the opened position, the bottom surface of the front tab being accessible once the guard is in the depressed position such that a user may apply force to the underside of the tab to lift the cap, thus moving the container from the closed position to the opened position. 2. The container of claim 1, wherein the container is a vial. 3. The container of claim 1, wherein the body includes a bottom wall and a tubular side wall that extends upward from the bottom wall about an outer perimeter of the bottom wall, the bottom wall and the side wall defining the interior. 4. The container of claim 3, wherein the opening is defined by an upper edge of the side wall. 5. The container of claim 1, wherein the cap comprises a top wall and a skirt extending downward from the top wall, about an outer perimeter of the top wall. 6. The container of claim 1, wherein the guard has an outer-most surface that is 2 mm to 4 mm from an outer surface of the side wall of the body. 7. The container of claim 1, comprising an engagement formed between the body and the cap which retains the cap over the opening when in the closed position, the container further comprising a seal formed between the body and the cap when the container is in the closed position, wherein the engagement and the seal are separate and independent of each other. 8. The container of claim 7, wherein the guard has an outer-most surface that is 2 mm to 4 mm from an outer surface of the side wall of the body. 9. The container of claim 8, wherein the seal is a moisture tight seal. 10. A container, comprising: a body defining an interior and an opening that leads to the interior;a cap that removably affixes over the opening to move the container between an opened position and a closed position, the cap including a front tab; anda child resistant closure comprising: a guard extending outward from the body, adjacent to the opening;a support frame extending from an inner surface of the guard towards the body;a protrusion extending from the support frame towards the inner surface of the guard; anda catch extending from an underside of the cap, the catch having an aperture therein; the child resistant closure being movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position, the child resistant closure preventing movement of the container from the closed position to the opened position when in the engaged position, the engaged position comprising disposal of the catch in a space between the support frame and the inner surface of the guard, wherein the protrusion mates with the aperture, wherein the guard blocks access to a bottom surface of the tab, wherein the guard is a strip that projects from an outer surface of the container body, directly below the tab when the container is in the closed position, and the guard is depressed radially inwardly to move from the engaged position to the disengaged position, to permit access to the bottom surface of the tab and allow opening of the container. 11. The container of claim 10, wherein the strip has first and second ends attached to an outer surface of the side wall, and curves outwardly from the body between the first and second ends. 12. The container of claim 11, wherein notches are formed between the guard and the side wall at the first and second ends of the guard, to facilitate radial inward depression of the guard. 13. The container of claim 10, wherein the guard has an outer-most surface that is about 2 mm to about 4 mm from an outer surface of the side wall of the body. 14. The container of claim 13, wherein the cap is pivotally affixed to the body by a hinge. 15. The container of claim 10, wherein the guard has an outer-most surface that is about 3 mm to about 4 mm from an outer surface of the side wall of the body. 16. The container of claim 10, wherein the cap is pivotally affixed to the body by a hinge. 17. The container of claim 10, comprising an engagement formed between the body and the cap which retains the cap over the opening when in the closed position, the container further comprising a seal formed between the body and the cap when the container is in the closed position, wherein the engagement and the seal are separate and independent of each other and wherein the cap is pivotally affixed to the body by a hinge. 18. The container of claim 17, wherein the seal is a moisture tight seal and wherein the seal is located below the engagement in an axial direction of the container.
