Can You Bring Medication to an Inmate at Morgan County Detention Center?
Getting medication to someone at Morgan County Detention Center? The rules are different for prescription versus over-the-counter meds.
Yes, you can bring prescription medication to Morgan County Detention Center - but only under specific conditions. The medication must be in its original container. The facility's contract physician has to verify everything before it's accepted. Over-the-counter meds are a different story. You can't drop off OTC items at all. If the inmate needs something like ibuprofen or antacids, they'll need to order it through commissary.
The original container is non-negotiable. Morgan County Detention Center requires it so the jail's contract physician can verify the medication. Show up with pills in a baggie or a different bottle? Expect to be turned away. Verification depends on that original packaging. Bring it correctly the first time - you'll save yourself a wasted trip.
How to Get Meds to Inmate
- ✓ Bring only current prescription medication, and keep it in the original container so it can be verified by the jail’s contract physician.
- ✓ Don’t bring over-the-counter medication - plan for OTC needs through commissary instead.
- ✓ If you’re unsure whether what you have will be accepted, call Morgan County Detention Center at 573-378-5481 before you go.
Need to get your loved one something over the counter - like pain relievers or cold medicine? You can't drop those off. At Morgan County Detention Center, all OTC items have to be ordered through commissary.
