The last script my husband got was filled at the hospital pharmacy, and the lid can be used either way, child-proof, or not. This was for 20 pain killers.
His regular scrips from the drugstore are always in child-proof bottles. I don't think he's ever been given an option. We don't need child-proof bottles as a rule, and his prescriptions are always stored on a high shelf out of easy reach, in plain view in the kitchen. Some of the bottles can be tough to open. I'm not on any prescription medicine, but I would need non-childproof bottles if I was.
