Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0254487A2] A medication holder and display tray(l0) holds colour coded bottles(22) of medications in a plurality of separate compartments(l6b) which each have an inclined plane(l8) to which is attached a colour coded label(20). The inclined plane(l8) of each compartment positions the bottles(20) of medication resting thereon such that each can be easily and quickly recognized and removed. Colour coding on each bottle corresponds to the colour coding on a top portion of the inclined plane(l8) of a compartment(l6b). This speeds up identification of a medication and helps prevents mistakes. Colour coding is not meant as a substitute for reading a label on a container of medication.
