Other Prescription Drugs
Most prescription drugs aren’t considered hazardous or controlled, but they still pose a risk to the environment and shouldn’t be flushed or thrown in the trash. While their disposal may not be regulated, it’s best to secure and destroy them, which can be done with the help of a licensed vendor.
