The Saskatoon Fire Department's hazardous materials unit responded to the city's Canada Post depot Tuesday morning.

The team was dispatched to the depot on 51st Street just after 9 a.m., following a call about a leaking package.

The fire crew identified the substance as a non-hazardous antibiotic, according to the department.

The package it was leaking from turned out to be a mailed prescription.
