SIRUM

Facilitates redistribution of unused medications

Menlo Park, California, United States

About SIRUM

SIRUM focuses on drug donation and redistribution to help individuals who cannot afford medications. The company collects unused, surplus medications from health facilities and pharmacies, ensuring compliance with national drug donation laws and providing liability protection to donors. Medications are boxed up and picked up by FedEx for redistribution to partner organizations that dispense them to those in need. This process not only minimizes medical waste but also improves access to essential medications for underserved populations. SIRUM differentiates itself by its commitment to public health and its structured approach to facilitating donations, supported by revenue from donations and grants. The goal is to save lives by making sure that unused medications are effectively redistributed to improve health outcomes.
