I'm sure most of us have seen stacking cups, or those toy lightsabers that extend and retract. This medicine chest uses the same principle.

This innovation serves two purposes:

1) It allows you to pull the mirror closer to you for shaving/ applying makeup, whatever you may need the bathroom mirror for.

2) It allows you to store more medicine and other such items in there, just pull it out to extend it and make more room as necessary.

It could also supply simple medical advice: "accordion to the medicine chest, it says I should take two aspirins and pull myself together".

That would require sophisticated programming, which would make it much more expensive. Also, how does it know what can and cannot be taken together? Different illnesses sometimes require different combinations of medicines than another person would be able to safely take. And just because you have mulitple drugs in the chest doesn't mean you plan on taking them at the same time anyway, so it would be pointless.
