The plunger (2) and inner section (16) co-operate to define a cavity for storing a plurality of tablets from which a single tablet can be dispensed by activating the plunger (2). The plunger (2) is biased into a closed position by an integrally moulded plastic spring means (6) and there is also a plastic mechanism (9,10) which provides an audible sound when the plunger (2) is actuated. <IMAGE>
