Cepacol Sore Throat Lozenges 16 ct
Chlorpheniramine Maleate Antihistamine 100 ct
Cough & Cold for High Blood Pressure 16 ct
My question is that does it mean "count" and always refers to the number of tablets in a package in any cases?
Can anybody help me? Your assistance is much appreciated.
Thank you.

This abbreviation is largely confined to the US now, though we used it in the UK when I was young.

Outside the US I think you'd say (for example) "x 16" or "16 tablets" or "sixteen".
