Abstract: A pill dispenser employing a cartridge contained within and rotatably mounted to a housing. The housing includes a cover and a base. The base has a post extending to receive the cartridge and a dispensing hole therethrough. The cover includes a boss having an asymmetry which allows for alignment of the cartridge when positioned on the cover. The cartridge includes holes at first radially equal locations from the center of the cartridge with one blank space therein and a second row of holes inwardly thereof. Thus, multiple pills may be dispensed through the dispensing hole in the base on a multiple cycle basis.
