When we think of medical waste, we typically think about old syringes, bloody gauze, or items contaminated with bodily secretions. Few people realize that there is another type of medical waste right in our own medicine cabinets. And this type of medical waste poses a health hazard to all that live in the home. I'm talking about the prescription medication in our homes; specifically expired and unused prescription medication. Like other types of medical waste there are special ways to dispose of old prescriptions and unused medication. Follow these simple guidelines to protect you, your family, your pets and the environment.
