in theory, it is not a good thing to do. What do you think would happen if someone with very high blood pressure took imitrex? If someone with very low blood pressure took verapamil? I have read all the posts regarding harm to this site but I don't think there was any mention about harm to people receiving the drugs. That , to me, is far worse than harm to this site.
The idea of a donating drugs to a medical facility is great but I doubt that any facility would accept drugs from a non certified source. A cash fund is the best way to help and Elaine did do this for one of our own. It was a very generous thing to do.
Except in very, very rare instances sharing drugs just isn't a good thing to do.
