A storage container for a storage and dispensing station for drugs or dietary supplement products is provided. The storage container has a separating device including a plurality of channels and a retainer for preventing drugs from slipping into a channel aligned with a dispensing opening. The separating device includes an annular groove and the retainer includes a positioner that engages in the annular groove of the separating device and fixes the retainer vertically. The retainer also includes a retaining section and a holder. The holder secures the retainer against a concurrent rotation with the separating device and aligns the retaining section with the dispensing opening by the holder interacting with a circular cylindrical section of the housing.
Pill sorting apparatus
A novel apparatus for allocating pills from a pharmacy pill container into a weekly pill storage container is described herein. The pill sorting apparatus is made of two parts, each with seven holes. The pills are poured into the sorting apparatus, and the two parts are shifted so that the holes align, allowing the seven pills to drop into the weekly pill storage container.
MEASURED DOSE DISPENSER AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME
A two-piece measured-dose dispensing closure (10) includes a cup-shaped measuring chamber (12) and a rotatable dispensing control lid (14). In use, the dispensing control lid is axially moved relative to the measuring chamber by rotation between a first closed position, a second intermediate dispensing position, and a third drain position.

Passage device, valve, reception device including same, content movement device, and content device
The present invention relates to a passage device, a valve, a reception device including the same, a content movement device, and a content device. The present invention comprises a passage operation part included in a housing to move and guide contents, wherein the passage operation part comprises a content passage means for moving the contents. Unlike the prior art, the present invention can ensure a content passage space and adjust the passage space and a reception space to prevent reception of contents exceeding a required amount. Further, the present invention can stably induce the passage of a required amount of contents within a predetermined range, and prevent remaining of an excessive amount of contents in conjunction with the limiting of the content reception space, thereby adjusting the amount (number) of received contents.
Device for storing pills
A device to store pills. The device includes different compartments each sized to hold one or more of the pills. The device is connected to a cap of a pill bottle. When the cap is attached to the pill bottle, the container is positioned in the interior space of the pill bottle. The cap may be safely secured to the pill bottle thus also safely securing the device within the interior of the pill bottle.
MEDICATION PACKAGING AND DISPENSING SYSTEM
A medication packaging and dispensing system is provided. The system may include a plurality of medication booklets containing medication and a tray that is configured to retain the medication booklets. Each medication booklet may include a sequential tab assembly of pull tabs that aligns with a plurality of front cutouts and a plurality of back cutouts. This alignment configuration facilitates dispensing the medication from the medication booklet. The tray may include a riser that extends from a bottom wall of the tray at an oblique angle, and a first guide panel including a plurality of linear stops. The oblique angle may correspond to a pitch of the first guide panel. The riser and the plurality of linear stops may cooperate to maintain the medication booklets in a staggered configuration that is substantially parallel to the bottom wall of the tray. The system may further include a container for retaining the tray.

Child-resistant dosing cap
The current disclosure is directed to a container with a dispensing schedule and, in various described implementations, to a container and a complementary cap that includes a dispensing schedule. During each dispensing cycle, which includes removing the cap from the container to allow access to the contents of the container and re-securing the cap to the container, the display schedule is automatically advanced to a next indication. In one implementation, the container is a bottle with a threaded neck and the cap is complementarily threaded and has a cylindrical rim and a schedule display. An indication on or within the schedule display is displayed through an aperture in the cap rim. Features included in the cap and the schedule display interoperate to ensure that the displayed indication is advanced to a next indication when the cap is unscrewed from, and subsequently threaded onto, the bottle.
