Very cool, I love this new stream of nonprofits from YC.

I'm curious about a couple of things: Do you repackage the medicines before shipping them? Do you currently just handle tablets or also other forms (insulin for example, that may have to be refrigerated)?

Most of the medication is donated in its original packaging. In most states the recipient can then repackage so the patient gets a normal amber vial just like any other source.

We do donate a lot of injections, patches, and inhalations. Currently we are not able to do refrigerated medicine like insulin, but are working on cold-chain shipping so hope to offer that soon.
