The bearing frame (1) comprises at least a rack (10) formed by a plurality of levels arranged along the vertical extension of the bearing frame (1). Each of the levels of the rack (10) may contain a plurality of drug storing and supplying means (8, 9, 14) packed in a tape (15). The apparatus also comprises at least one movable structure (4) for separating and collecting said drugs, said movable structure (4) comprising one or more cutting units (24), each arranged at a respective level of the rack (10) and communicating with a conveyor (5). The movable structure (4) is designed to slide longitudinally with respect to the bearing frame (1) to separate by means of the cutting units (24) one or more portions of the tape (15) from the respective drug storing and supplying means (8, 9, 14). The portions of tape (15) are collected by the conveyor (5) and conveyed toward a collecting container (26).</p> |
