To develop a medicine dispensing device capable of dispensing medicine more quickly and more accurately and reducing the size of the whole device without reducing the number of medicine containers that can be accommodated.A medicine container for containing powder medicine, a medicine container accommodating section for storing a plurality of medicine containers, a container moving means and a packaging apparatus. The container moving means 5 has container holding means for holding the medicine container 30, transport means for moving the container holding means, and discharge mechanism for discharging the powder medicine from the medicine container, and is stored in the medicine container housing section 3 The medicine container 30 is taken out by the container moving means 5, the medicine container is held by the holding means of the container moving means 5, the medicine container is moved to a predetermined position by the carrying means, and the medicine container is held by the container holding means of the container moving means And discharges powdered medicine from the medicine container by the discharging mechanism.(FIG.【課題】より迅速に、より正確に薬剤を分包することができ、且つ収容可能な薬剤容器の数を減らすことなく装置全体の小型化を図ることができる薬剤払出し装置を開発する。【解決手段】散薬を収容する薬剤容器30と、複数の薬剤容器を保管する薬剤容器収容部3と、容器移動手段5と、包装装置6を有する。容器移動手段5は、薬剤容器30を保持する容器保持手段と、容器保持手段を移動させる運搬手段と、薬剤容器から散薬を排出させる排出機構を有し、薬剤容器収容部3に保管されている薬剤容器30を容器移動手段5で取り出し、容器移動手段5の保持手段で薬剤容器を保持して運搬手段で所定の位置に薬剤容器を移動し、容器移動手段の容器保持手段で薬剤容器を保持した状態で前記排出機構によって薬剤容器から散薬を排出する。【選択図】図4
