A blister package (10) is disclosed that comprises a blister layer having an article receiving blister (38) formed therein for holding medicaments, and a base layer (32). The blister layer has one or more tearing blisters (34) joined to the base layer except in the areas of the article receiving blister and the tearing blisters. The portions of the base layer (32) and the blister layer (30) that are joined together cannot be readily torn from the outer edges of the blister package, but the portion of the blister layer that forms the tearing blister (34) is thin enough that the tearing blister and the portion of the base layer under the tearing blister can be readily torn from the outer edge of the blister package.
