[...medicine bottles...]
A prescription label will come off cleanly if you try to take it off
within a couple days after being stuck on the bottle. So [...]
This is also helpful for more secure destruction of
the label.
Fine sandpaper or moral equivalent can also do the trick, removing the
outer surface of the label. If you don't sand down too much, you won't
have to worry about the adhesive, either.
Of course, that assumes your labels work like the ones I've seen. I
mostly end up just ignoring the labels, leaving them on the bottles
when I use them, and/or hang onto them long enough that the adhesive
fails on its own. (Anyone who has access to my small parts collection
I don't care about keeping my prescriptions secret from, though I
recognize that may not be true of everyone..)
