Another option is to utilize a safe drug disposal bag, such as the Deterra® Drug Deactivation kit. Deterra bags provide an environmentally safe way to get rid of unused medicine, preventing misuse and ensuring unused drugs do not get into our landfills and waterways They’re easy to use too in three easy steps:

Place medication in pouch.
Fill halfway with water.
Seal, shake and dispose in trash.

This October, national nonprofit SAFE Project is providing the Deterra® Drug Deactivation and Disposal System free of charge to U.S. households through the Gone for Good® at-home medication disposal campaign. From October 1-31, request a free Deterra Pouch and it will be mailed directly to your door.
