Medication Donation & Disposal

The Wyoming Medication Donation Program (WMDP) reduces medication waste and improves prescription access for low-income Wyoming residents who lack adequate prescription coverage. The WMDP provides immediate prescription help by re-dispensing acceptable donated medications, and providing advice on lower-cost alternatives.

The Wyoming Medication Donation Program is no longer accepting used and expired medications for disposal. However, they are still accepting unopened and non expired medications for donation.

• Opened Medications
• Expired (less than 5 months before expiration)
