I have a box of medications for a throat pain and there is a total of five small circles. Four of them are the perfect representation of CMYK colors, so cyan, magenta, yellow and black. The fifth one is a shade of green that’s used for the text on the white paper box. The names of the four CMYK colors are also written on the box in their respective colors.
Not every medication box seems to have these colors. But yesterday I threw away an empty paper box of cough meds, that also had CMYK colored circles printed on it.

It’s part of the printing process for the packaging. The dots show the colour requirements for the brand and whether or not the print run is in register (colours are where they should be). It’s to make sure the press is using the exact colours needed for the brand and they all look identical when printed.
