Abstract (en)

A dispenser for medical preparations in tablet form having a body (2) for housing an insert (10) having compartments (12) arranged in rows, on row for each day of the week and four compartments in each row, one compartment for a specific time of the day and housing one intake of tablets. Over each row is a recess (7) and in each recess (7) is arranged a slidable cover (8) for covering and uncovering the compartments (12). The dispenser (1) comprises a novel removable cap (11) of elastic material that snaps in an opening (21) formed in a transverse side (4) of the body (2). When the cap (11) is removed the insert (10) can be extracted and refilled with new tablets. Also, the dispenser (1) comprises a novel locking means (13) that engages and locks all the covers (8) in the closed position thereof, thus preventing the dispenser (1) from being opened accidentally.
