A relatively simple electronic pill dispenser includes a housing with several drawers slidably mounted therein, each drawer containing a plurality of compartments for separate pill dosages, the compartments having open bottom ends for dispensing the pills when the drawers are moved to one of a plurality of open positions; a separate motor and gear train engaging a rack on the bottom of each drawer for moving the drawer between the open and closed positions; and a mechanical monitor for monitoring drawer movement and closing a switch to relay information concerning drawer movement to a control circuit, which controls movement of the drawers to successive open positions for dispensing the contents of one compartment at a time at preselected time intervals.
