When the present time of a clock circuit (106) is a medication time recorded in advance in a SD card (112), a notice that the medication time has come is given by a voice output portion (105) or the like. Presence/absence of a medicine package in each block of a medicine package case is sensed by a medicine package sensor (110). The time point and the presence/absence of the medicine package are recorded in the SD card (112). A notice corresponding to the presence/absence is output. At a time except for the medication time, taking-out of the case, opening/closing of the cover, taking-out and return of the medicine package are recorded in the SD card (112) based on detection signals from the medicine package sensor (110), medicine package case sensor (108), and case cover opening/closing sensor (109). A notice corresponding to the sensed situation is output.
