摘要：
A tamper-resistant, handheld pill dispenser includes a housing including a container to hold a plurality of pills and an opening on a side of the housing. The opening is sized sufficiently to deposit the pills into the container. The dispenser also includes a locking assembly in the opening, and a delivery channel sufficient to pass a pill therethrough. The delivery channel extends from the container to an exterior of the dispenser. The dispenser also includes a user input device on an exterior of the housing and a dispensing mechanism within the dispenser adjacent to the container. The locking assembly can open and close the opening in the housing to restrict access to the container through the opening by unauthorized users. The dispensing mechanism can dispense a pill from the container to the exterior of the dispenser via the delivery channel when activated by an authorized user of the pill dispenser.
