These medicines include ones for the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP), people with epilepsy, and people with tuberculosis (TB). A pharmacist at the State Central Pharmacy fills these prescriptions and sends them to MCHD in a sealed bag with the client's name on it. The Medicine Room gives the medicine to the clients and answers any questions.
