ABSTRACT:
A pharmaceutical package having a plurality of containers mounted on a support device and arranged in groups. Day indicia are arranged on the face of the support means opposite each one of the groups of containers for determining the containers to be emptied during each day. Each one of the containers has a receptacle which has an opened mouth for receiving and storing pharmaceutical items. A closure covers over the open mouths to retain the items therewithin, and a hinge connects the closure and the support for enabling the closure to swing between a closed position over the receptacle to retain the pharmaceutical items therein and the open position to permit access thereto. Time indicia are disposed on the outer faces of the closures for each one of the containers of each group for determining when the containers of each group are to be emptied by the user during certain times of the day and to indicate when selected ones of the closure means are disposed in their open position. Each one of the containers is sufficiently large to receive a plurality of different kinds of medication to be taken at one time. Each one of the receptacles includes a concave inner well to facilitate removal of the pharmaceutical items therefrom. Each closure may be opened readily.
