Abstract
A combination medication mold and dispenser. The medication is poured into a multicompartment tray and solidifies into troches. The tray is made of a flexible plastic which can be bent to release the troches individually. The tray has a cover attached with a flexible hinge to protect the troches after preparation. The medication can be prepared and dispensed to the patient in the same container. The covered tray can be held in a sleeve to further protect the medication and hold the cover in place.
