Methods and devices are disclosed wherein, following the introduction of a series or string of interconnected bags (2), a number of bags belonging together are automatically deposited in trays (3) in zigzag fashion, physically separated from each other, or automatically wound onto reels (12). Readable information is printed on the bags, which information indicates that the bags belong together, because their contents, usually medicinal tablets, are intended for the same entity. Said entity may for example be persons or animals in a particular department or on a particular floor level of a home for the elderly, a nursing home, a hospital. Said entity may also be a single person or a group of patients who regularly need specific medicines, frequently in exactly the prescribed order and at exact points in time. The medicines in the distributed trays or on the reels can thus be made available to the patients in an individualised manner and in the correct order.
