ABSTRACT:
A container for drugs which features a cylindrical vial with a radially outwardly flared skirt or axial bulge which symbolically designates the vial as one containing medication requiring special attention. The container may be formed as one or two pieces but in either case there is a portion below the internal bottom wall of the vial which can house a timer unit with a time display. A switch sets a time which remains on display, indicating the last time the switch was actuated, i.e. the last time medication was taken. The timer is mounted in a way so that it may be retained, even though the vial is discarded.
