You cannot donate or give away unused prescription medication; it is illegal. If you have unused prescription medication you should dispose of it properly to ensure no one else gets ahold of it.

Is there a place to donate unused prescr medication?

Unfortuntely, not really. The problem is that once the medication has left the pharmacy, official control of its potency and purity is no longer present and cannot be guaranteed. Unused prescription drugs should be disposed of in accordance with labelling. Disposal approach will vary with the drug, so do read the labelling, or ask your pharmacist. The answer is different if you are a pharmacy, health care provider, hospital, or drug distributor. In these cases, you can donate your drugs to a number of health aid organizations. A place to start would be an internet search for "doctors without borders".
