NC MedAssist will host a local Mobile Free Pharmacy Event sponsored by Triangle North Healthcare Foundation on Friday, June 30, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Masonic Home for Children, 600 College St., Oxford.
This free medicine giveaway is open to individuals 18 and older and families needing over-the-counter (OTC) medication items. No identification is required, and there are no income restrictions. Everyone is qualified.
Participants will be able to learn more about NC MedAssist’s free prescription pharmacy program and receive free OTC items such as cough and cold medicine, vitamins, children’s, allergy medication and first aid supplies. The event will occur rain or shine, and all OTC items will be given first-come, first-served while supplies last.

Last year, NC MedAssist held 53 Mobile Free Pharmacy events across North Carolina. For each event, NC MedAssist is committed to bringing enough OTC medicine for 1,000 people in need. NC MedAssist’s overall goal is to help ease the burden of those in need by aiding people who have been forced to decide between buying food and purchasing life-saving medication.
