The invention relates to a storage container (1) for a storage and dispensing station for drugs. In the case of known storage containers, sections of a retaining element must be guided through a slot in the housing. Because the position of the slot depends on the type of the drug portions, it is not possible to use known storage containers with all drugs. According to the invention, this problem is solved by means of a storage container having a housing (10) surrounding a holding space (2), which housing has a guide section (11) and a bottom surface, the guide section (11) defining a guide space (3) and having a vertical guide recess (20), which does not penetrate the housing, and the bottom surface (14) having a dispensing opening (15). The storage container also comprises a separating device (30) having at least one channel (31) for holding at least one drug portion and comprises a retaining element (40) having a retaining section (41) and having a guide element (45), which is arranged in the guide recess (20), the vertical guide recess (20) and the guide element (45) interacting in such a way that the retaining element (40) is arranged for height adjustment in the guide recess (20) by means of the guide element (45) and rotational motion of the retaining means (40) is prevented.
