Donating medicine?

[reiley99]

My dad past away on sept 29 and I've been down in Janesville Wis. helping my mother with some things. Anyways my dad has a lot of very pricey meds left is there somewhere to donate them so they can be given to people that need them and can't afford them. We just think it's a shame to just throw them away.

Also sorry for your loss. As for the meds, I think it's actually illegal to "share" prescript meds. Unfortunately I think you're best to take them to a "prescription disposal day". Usually pharmacies and public service organizations hold them.( fire/ems/police) Don't throw them in the trash, or flush them, they end up in bad places.....

Yes, list the stuff on craig's list and then require anyone interested in the med to show you either a valid prescription for it or an empty container naming the med on the bottle.
