A first inscription is provided on a visible surface of the base portion that specifies a brand name of prescription medication. A second inscription is provided on a visible surface of the base portion that provides an instruction regarding the use of the device.

The base portion is optionally dyed to better match the appearance of the prescription medication. An optional slot is provided in the base portion to retain business cards therein. An optional first recess is provided in the base portion to retain pens and pencils therein.
