A rack (10) to stock round (26) or semi-round medication containers. The rack (10) has a generally rectangular box shape and includes two side members (16). Both of the two side members (16) include one row of a plurality of generally “C” shaped slots (24) forming a plurality of windows (28). A label (34) with indicia (23) and medication-related information (22) is provided on a face panel (17) of each side member (16). In operation, medication containers (26), including a label (32) with indicia (31) and medication-related information (30), are pegged into the slots (24) of the rack (10) so that the medication-related information (30) of the labels (32) of the medication containers (26) show through windows (28) and align with the corresponding medication-related information (22) of the face panels (17) of rack (10).

1. A rack for holding at least one substantially cylindrical medication container, said container including at least two substantially horizontally extending indicia and at least one medication-related information quantity, the rack comprising: a body having a substantially planar bottom panel having an upper surface and a lower surface for resting on a support surface, said bottom panel substantially perpendicular to a substantially planar front panel having a front surface,the front panel further including at least one window opening,the window opening located between two wall surfaces defined by the front panel, and extending substantially upward from the bottom panel and through a top of the front panel,at least one of the two wall surfaces including at least two substantially horizontally extending indicia and at least two time frames,said two indicia located above one another in a substantially vertical direction on the front surface of the front panel between the top and bottom thereof,said two time frames located within said indicia,the at least one window opening adapted to expose less than 50% of the circumference of the at least one medication container,whereby the at least one medication container is adapted to be placed onto the upper surface of the bottom panel of the rack, substantially adjacent to the at least one window opening, such that the at least one medication-related information quantity on the container is adapted to be viewed through the at least one window opening, the at least one medication-related information quantity on the container is adapted to lie substantially aligned with one of the at least two time frames on the rack, and the medication-related information quantity on the container is adapted to correspond with one of the at least two time frames on the rack. 2. The rack of claim 1, said at least one window opening further comprising a plurality of window openings. 3. The rack of claim 1, said at least two time frames including at least one word, abbreviation, or number denoting a time or time range. 4. The rack of claim 1, said body being fabricated from molded plastic. 5. The rack of claim 1, said indicia included on at least one of the two wall surfaces including at least two colored bands located above one another in a substantially vertical direction on the front surface of the front panel between the top and bottom thereof. 6. The rack of claim 1, further including at least one medication container. 7. The rack of claim 1, said at least two substantially horizontally extending indicia further extending substantially horizontally on the two wall surfaces defined by the front surface and terminating at a second window opening. 8. The rack of claim 1, said indicia and time frames comprised of printed labels that are attached to at least one of said two wall surfaces. 9. The rack of claim 1, said indicia and time frames printed on at least one of said two wall surfaces. 10. A rack for holding at least one substantially cylindrical medication container, said container including at least two substantially horizontally extending indicia and at least one medication-related information quantity, the rack comprising: a body having a substantially planar top surface parallel to a substantially planar bottom surface for resting on a support surface, at least one substantially cylindrical slot opening extending through the top surface and extending through the body and terminating at an angled lower surface located above the bottom surface of the body,the body further comprising a front surface, disposed at an angle relative to the bottom surface, and a back surface; the slot opening further extending through the body from the front surface to a location between the front surface and the back surface, to define a window, extending from the top surface to a location above the bottom surface,the window located in between two wall surfaces defined by the front surface, at least one of the two wall surfaces having a surface including at least two substantially horizontally extending indicia and at least two time frames,said two time frames located above one another in a substantially vertical direction on the front surface of the front panel between the top and bottom thereof,the at least one widow opening adapted to expose less than 50% of the circumference of the at least one medication container,whereby the at least one medication container is adapted to be placed into the slot opening in the body, through the top surface and resting on the angled lower surface, thereby disposing the medication container at angle with a top of the medication container located above the top surface of the body, such that the at least one medication-related information quantity on the container can be viewed through the window, the at least one medication-related information quantity on the container lies substantially aligned with one of the time frames on the rack, and the at least one medication-related information quantity on the container corresponds with one of the time frames on the rack. 11. The rack of claim 10, whereby the at least one slot opening comprises a plurality of slot openings, each having a window. 12. The rack of claim 10, said time frames including at least one word, abbreviation, or number denoting a time or time range. 13. The rack of claim 10, said body being fabricated from molded plastic. 14. The rack of claim 10, said indicia included in at least one of the two wall surfaces including at least two colored bands located above one another in a substantially vertical direction on the front surface of the front panel between the top and bottom thereof. 15. The rack of claim 10, further including at least one medication container. 16. The rack of claim 10, whereby at least one slot opening and window is disposed in the back surface. 17. The rack of claim 10, further including a substantially arch shaped lip wall extending from the edges of the two wall surfaces, said edges adjacent the window, and across the window opening, further extending from the bottom surface, and extending substantially upwards from the bottom surface. 18. The rack of claim 10, said at least two substantially horizontally extending indicia further extending substantially horizontally on the two wall surfaces defined by the front surface and terminating at a second window. 19. The rack of claim 10, said indicia included in at least one of the two wall surfaces and time frames comprised of printed labels that are attached to said at least one wall surface. 20. The rack of claim 10, said indicia and time frames printed on said at least one wall surface.
