Medication and Sharps Disposal

Please safely discard unused medication in trash away from children and pets. Do not routinely flush your drugs down the toilet or drain except for controlled substances. Visit www.smarxtdisposal.net* for guidance on disposal of unused medications. Home users of sharps (e.g. needles) are urged to place sharps in hard wall containers (e.g. laundry detergent bottle with screw on lid) before disposal in order to protect garbage collectors from needlesticks. Call your county Department of Health or visit www.safeneedledisposal.org* to learn more.
