Abstract: A pressure press for preparing a cardlike arrangement for dispensing individual doses of medication without the application of heat which could be detrimental to the efficacy of the medication. The press consists of a base plate having the perforations to accomodate a sheet having pockets for the capsules. A cavity card with pressure sensitive adhesive is placed over the base plate, the card being provided with perforations to permit access to the pockets. The press has a pivoted cover plate to sandwich the card and sheet on the base plate. A pivoted pressure bar assembly is employed to cause the cover plate to exert sufficient pressure on the sandwich to insure adequate sealing.
