Abstract: A dual compartment dispenser for pill or other item storage includes a larger outer compartment and an auxiliary smaller pocket container configured to accommodate a predetermined daily dosage of items, which the user can carry in a clothing pocket, backpack or handbag, without having to carry the entire bottle container of items. The smaller auxiliary pocket container compartment fits on top of or underneath the cap of the item container compartment, and is held in place by being threaded to the top of the cap of the container, or to an underside of the cap of the container. The smaller auxiliary pocket container compartment can also be held in place by a friction fit or magnetic attachment within or on top of the outer container, with or without a detent and/or ledge supporting the smaller auxiliary pocket container compartment. It can also be loosely supported by a ledge within the neck of a bottle neck container.
