A coding system is disclosed herein for matching specific consumption times and for appropriate medicines stored in a medical container which includes an open-ended container having a removable cap closure and a label imprinted with the specific times for taking of the medicine. The cap and label are identically colored to represent the number of times that the medicine is to be taken per day. The label is further coded with a selected number of raised identification dots or nubs to represent the number of times that the medicine is to be taken per day. This small label is attached by the pharmacist in addition to the regular label per customer request.
