I have this same safe.. It is fairly easy to pry underneath the black tab with a tool. You will most likely damage the safe so I would have to CAUTION you. THE other way would be to pry a small flat head screw driver in the lock itself with a hammer and the the lock should pop off. PLEASE IF THIS IS FOR MEDICAL REASON AND IT IS AN EMERGENCY YOU ARE GOING TO DAMAGE THE SAFE!
The quickest solution is to go to lock smith . the problem will be solved quickly. that way you will have the meds as soon as possible and the cost will be minimal.
Just cracked my 1250 safe. If you've already got it open, take the plastic cover off with a flat head screwdriver. You'll expose the combination mechanism. Spin the combination wheel clockwise three times, then turn it until the notch on the wheel closest to the door meets with the latch. Write down the first number. Turn it counter clockwise once around then do the same with the second wheel. Finally turn the third wheel clockwise until the last notch matches up with the others. Write down all three numbers and you have your combination.
