Waste pharmaceuticals are a far reaching issue that affects more than just hazardous material programs. Unused drugs present opportunities for environmental contamination, drug abuse and accidental poisonings. Taking the easy way out and simply throwing your unused medications in the trash or flushing them down the drain can lead to significant environmental problems.
