Unused Pills Charity? I have sooo many


Recommended Posts

In our endless quest to help get DS15 functional again, we have tried many, many, many different pills.

 

Some we can still use (I have started taking his D3 vitamins, my daughter is taking Florastor probiotic). But there are many that we will probably never use again. I have several free Luvox 100mgCR bottles, Delpin, B12, NAC, etc.

 

I have to assume that I'm not alone, what do you do with the "failed" pills?

I just gave a huge bag of unused meds/supplements to our "take it back" program in my county.

 

They handed out this information:

 

DO NOT FLUSH UNUSED MEDICATIONS AND DO NOT POUR THEM DOWN A SINK OR DRAIN

 

TO ENSURE YOU PROTECT CHILDREN AND PETS:

1) Pour medication into a sealable plastic bag. If medication is a solid, crush it or add water to dissolve.

2) Add kitty litter, sawdust, or coffee grounds to the plastic bag.

3) Seal the plastic bag and dispose in the trash.

I think it's especially important to dispose of meds like sedatives, anti-anxiety meds (e.g. Xanax), pain meds, as these are often abused substances.
