A multi-day pill organizer / pillbox.
Provides multiple days with multiple chambers each.
The number of chambers per day and the number of days are easily customizable in the provided OpenSCAD files. As are the dimensions of each chamber, the labelling of the days, and the labelling of the chambers.
Each chamber has a sloped southern edge to aid in sliding out the pills.
This model is also available on Printables.
For the Prusa MINI with PLA filament, ready-to-print GCODE files of the pillbox body are provided in six variants:
- Pillbox de 7x2: German labels, 7 days, 2 chambers per day (morning and evening).
- Pillbox de 7x4: German labels, 7 days, 4 chambers per day (morning, noon, evening, and night). Each individual chamber is a little shorter than in the 7x2 version.
- Pillbox en_GB 7x2: English labels, week starts on Monday, 7 days, 2 chambers per day (morning and evening).
- Pillbox en_GB 7x4: English labels, week starts on Monday, 7 days, 4 chambers per day (morning, noon, evening, and night). Each individual chamber is a little shorter than in the 7x2 version.
- Pillbox en_US 7x2: English labels, week starts on Sunday, 7 days, 2 chambers per day (morning and evening).
- Pillbox en_US 7x4: English labels, week starts on Sunday, 7 days, 4 chambers per day (morning, noon, evening, and night). Each individual chamber is a little shorter than in the 7x2 version.
The lid is provided in two variants:
- Pillbox Lid x2: 2 chambers per day (morning and evening).
- Pillbox Lid x4: 4 chambers per day (morning, noon, evening, and night). Each individual chamber is a little shorter than in the 7x2 version.
The fit of the lids is fairly tight. You might need to grab a small flathead screwdriver or a paper clip to clean out the lid channels after printing.
For all other printers or filaments, ready-to-slice STL files are provided in the same variants as above.
If none of the pre-compiled files suit your needs, edit the OpenSCAD file of the variant that comes closest to your needs. Further instructions are given in the file itself.
The box can easily be customized to better suit other uses. For example, why not increase the chamber dimensions, reduce the chamber count, remove the labels, and then use the box to store boardgame pieces?

This is a remix of the great Customizable Pill Dosette Box by @einarjh, used under CC-BY-SA 4.0.
The primary functional changes are (a) the addition of a sloped edge to each chamber, which makes it easier to slide out the pills; and (b) easier customization of the chamber dimensions. To facilitate both, the OpenSCAD files have been completely rewritten.
