If you can't find anyone that needs the meds, the social worker at the
hospital may be interested in them.

I'm guessing for legal reasons they can't take back medications, even
unopened bottles of ribavirin. Could be wrong, though, and if it comes
to that I will find out.

When I quit tx the last time there was someone here that wasn't covered
by insurance, or in the middle of losing their insurance, and they were
going to have to quit tx midway. I was able to send two months worth of
meds that I had left over. If you do send any peg, procrit, or neupogen,
I sent mine by UPS overnight packed in the ice packs that were used
when sent to me. The person did receive it within two days and the meds
were still cold. I don't advocate breaking the law, but there are times
when unusual circumstances call for unusual solutions. I don't remember
if the person beat the dragon or not, but at least they had the weapons
to give it their best shot and that is the best anyone can do.
