Tablets T contained in a feeder vessel 2 are discharged through a feed port 7 by rotating a rotor 8 provided on the bottom of a feeder vessel 2. The bottom of the feeder vessel 2 is upwardly inclined toward the feed port 7 side. The rotor 8 has a disc-like shape and the outer periphery of the rotor 8 is formed with a substantially U-shaped cutout portion 9. The cutout portion 9 and the bottom of the feeder vessel 2 define a retaining portion 10 for retaining only one of the tablets T. Thus, the tablet feeder is capable of automatically feeding tablets, particularly half-tablets, with a simple and low-cost construction.
