The container is especially adapted for use by a patient who may be taking several different medications at different time intervals. The container is characterized by having a plurality of compartments adapted to contain the medication, a common closure for all of the compartments to facilitate filling of the container by manufacturer, physician, pharmacist, nurse or patient, and an individual closure for each of the compartments to permit access to each compartment sequentially at the proper time intervals. Desirably indicia are provided identifying the compartments by the appropriate time intervals at which the medications are to be taken.
