You’ve tackled the closets, the laundry room and the garage.
Only thing left if is your medicine cabinet. But, what do to with all those old
prescriptions. According to the website Dispose
My Meds, more than 71,000 cases of accidental overdose occurs in children
aged 18 and younger. How about the environmental impact? More than 100
pharmaceuticals have been detected in our water systems. Needless to say, it’s important to be
responsible with the disposal of your over-the-counter and prescription meds.
Enter the Takeaway Environmental Return System; we found
some at the local KingSoopers, onine at Sharps
Compliance, and DisposeMyMeds.org.
Pack up unused and expired medications into these convenient envelopes; they
include return shipping and handling and are processed by law enforcement
officials. Pharmacists will dispose of returned medication into a waste bin
specially designed for storing these unneeded pharmaceuticals.
Now you can get on enjoying your spring with the knowledge that you've
done due diligence!
