Where can I donate hermetic prescription medication.?
Most are surrounded by sealed unit and still within expiration date. I'm sure someone could use them. I just don't know of any place I can donate them to.
Answers: Actually, I believe within a few states there are some programs for medication "recycling", but they are impressively strict about what is official & in what condition.
The best entity you could probably do, since giving them to people would technically be against the rules (too bad), you could donate them to an animal shelter. You can donate pretty much any type of meds contained by any condition (opened or not) to somewhere like the county animal control shelter, and probably also Humane Society type shelters. Animal rescue orgs might also cart medication donations.
But I know from experience that shelters will take pretty much anything. From at hand it's just up to the vet to see if it's something they can use. Lots of people meds are used on animals, esp. dogs. For example, anti-histamines and ant-anxiety drugs (only by vet's directives of course - don't do this at home) are intensely helpful surrounded by shelters, where copious pets get a bit lower than the weather from the stress & from being around other animals, and also they freak out surrounded by a strange new place. And obviously drugs for cancer and other more serious things are useful too.
If you want to be positively sure they can be used before you donate them, check near a local vet as to which meds are useful for animals.
Thanks for individual generous ample to consider donating them.
you can't, not in this country at any rate, you enjoy to toss them.
