Abstract
For safe storage and simple and safe administration of tablets T by a user, a cartridgeis provided that can be inserted into a medicament dispenserfor solid medicament portions T and that is designed with a reservoir for receiving the medicament portions T, and a medicament dispensercontaining this cartridgeis also provided. According to the invention, the cartridgecomprises a transport safety mechanism for preventing movement of the medicament portions T during storage and transport of the cartridge. This transport safety mechanism is in particular a tolerance compensation plugthat sits with a frictional fit in the reservoir and that is movable in the axial direction. The cartridgealso contains a tablet riderwhich is movable in the axial direction in the reservoir and which engages through at least one axial slit in the cartridgeand with which a force acting in the axial direction is transferred to the medicament portions (T) in the cartridge, thus serving to hold down a column-shaped arrangement of medicament portions (T).
