Does anyone know of an organization that I can donate unopened medication to?

Stuff is expensive and is an enormous waste to dispose of.

thanks in advance

Some people post here with what they have and then go to private message to get more info and mail it. Or you could post and try to find someone who needs it locally so you don't have to ship.

It's not technically legal but people do it because as you say it's a waste to just toss them, and it can be a huge help to people who are juggling deductibles, etc. and would really appreciate it. You don't have to worry too much about somebody not having a prescription because these are not the types of meds anybody would take unless they absolutely had to.

Wondering if Darryl could get a doctor to supervise passing out unused meds?

My take on this (which doesn't mean much) is to give it (them) to a member....Don't send them to the any Government agency cause most of the employees are busy watching pornos on their puters.....

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.
