Apparatus and method for crushing medication. A crushing member mounted within a housing is rotatable about two axes. Rotation about the first axis allows relative movement between the crushing member and an anvil thereby to allow the medication to be crushed. Rotation of the crushing member about the second axis allows access to the medication and removal of the medication which may be within a receptacle. The receptacle and the crushing member have a complementary frustoconical configuration allowing the receptacle to be positioned on the crushing member with the medication between the crushing member and the receptacle. A second receptacle may be used with a similar configuration, the second receptacle being mounted over the first receptacle with the medication therebetween to prevent contamination and spillage.
