    Can you clean the drain? That would be what I would try to do first.

    I use a turkey baster or straw and hot water when cleaning my frig, and I have purchased a freezing spray for removing ice for my neighbors plugged drain.

    Where is it leaking from?

    If it leaking from underneath, the drain pan might be full of water and needs to be emptied. To empty it reach under the front of the refrig and you'll feel a tray/shallow pan, pull it toward you, it is probably full of water. Empty it and replace it. From there keep an eye on it.

    After you have done this go to the back of the refrig and pull it away from the back wall, get your vacuum cleaner and use the brush attachment to clean off the coils. This will help keep your refrig from overheating and cool the contents more efficiently. These coils help with the evaporation of water and humid conditions.
