We study both theoretically and experimentally the process of subdiffusive substance releasing from a thick membrane. The theoretical model uses the subdiffusion equation with fractional time derivative and specific boundary conditions at the membrane surfaces. Using a special \textit{ansatz} we find analytical formulas describing the time evolution of concentration profiles and an amount of the substance remains in the membrane. Fitting the theoretical functions to the experimental results, we estimate the subdiffusion coefficient of polyethylene glycol 2000 in agarose hydrogel.
