A blister pack dispensing device comprises a housing having first ( 10 ) and second ( 12 ) walls and containing a blister pack ( 23 ) and a movable frame ( 14 ). The first wall ( 10 ) has an array of apertures ( 11 ) which correspond to the array of blisters on the blister pack ( 23 ). The second wall ( 12 ) has an array of buttons ( 13 ) which are aligned with the apertures ( 11 ). Each button ( 13 ) is provided with a projection ( 22 ) while the frame ( 14 ) has corresponding apertures ( 15 ). The frame may be urged by a user to a first position in which the projections ( 22 ) on the buttons ( 13 ) are aligned with the apertures ( 15 ) to allow the buttons ( 13 ) to be depressed to disperse the blister contents through the apertures ( 11 ). A spring ( 17 ) restores the frame ( 14 ) to a second position, when released by the user, such that the projection ( 22 ) are misaligned with the apertures ( 15 ) on the frame ( 14 ) and prevent the buttons ( 13 ) being depressed.
