Abstract

The device comprises a collar-shaped cassette body ( 1 ), including a central opening ( 2 ) surrounded by an open-top annular space which is divided by partitions ( 4 ) for dosage containers ( 3 ). The dosage containers ( 3 ) are concealed by a cover ( 11 ), rotatable relative to the cassette body ( 1 ) and provided adjacent to its circular rim with a dispensing aperture ( 13 ), which is coincidabe with any dosage container ( 3 ) by rotating the cover ( 11 ). The cover ( 11 ) includes a central recess ( 12 ) or a collar ring, which is fit to be embedded in the body's central opening ( 2 ). The cover ( 11 ) is provided with a window ( 14 ), through which is visible a dispensing time for at least one dose, which is printed on a dispensing schedule placed in the body's central opening. Cooperation between the body ( 1 ) and the cover ( 11 ) enables facilitating both dispensing of doses from the dosage containers and loading of medicaments into the dosage containers.
