pill box

Small medication holder

A pill box is a small container for storing medication, often with compartments for organizing doses by day or time.

The term also refers to a type of small, round, flat-topped hat worn tilted on the head, popular in the mid-20th century: Jackie Kennedy's signature pill box.

In military contexts, a pillbox is a small concrete fortification with narrow openings for guns.
