Abstract

A closure for a medication container includes a recorder supported by the closure for recording and playing back a patient's instructions for taking the medication. The recorder includes a microphone, a speaker, a storage means, a play button, and a recessed record button. A liner is also provided and is releasably engaged with the closure such that a barrier is formed between the closure and the medication container. The closure also has a tab extending from its periphery. The tab has an aperture extending through it. A strap dimensioned to pass through the aperture is provided and has a tang with one end engageable with the tab to retain the strap in the aperture. The strap extends generally adjacent to the container when retained in the aperture and can be attached to the medication container by an adhesive strip thereby preventing complete separation of the closure from the container.
