The pouch body has an opening at every side thereof. Each opening is equipped with a zipper device or sealed to form a sealed side. Several pouch bodies can be assembled together by adhesion. The pouch bodies containing medicines to be taken at a specified time are arranged at a specified orientation. The pouch bodies having the sealed sides thereof arranged at the same specified orientation contain medicines not to be taken at the specified time. The user opens the zipper devices at the same specified orientation to take out medicines that he should take at the specified time, exempted from taking out wrong medicines. Thus, the present invention is not only convenient for the user taking medicine but also prevents the user from taking the wrong medicine.
