Abstract: An easy to use pill safety dispenser having few parts and which are easily manipulated even by persons with digital disabilities such as arthritis and paralysis. The dispenser consists of a axially arranged cylindrical pill container having a pill dispensing aperture in its sidewall and a row of slots or notches positioned at one end of the outer rim of the container. One notch is deeper than the others. A corresponding sleeve with a pill dispensing aperture is adapted to fit over the container which is rotatable and slidable and has a tang positioned near one of its ends which, when correctly rotated and slid into position, aligns both pill dispensing apertures and allows one or more pills to pass through.
