In reply to Recycling Medicines?, posted by tecknohed on December 20, 2006, at 15:24:38
Thanks for replies.
When I say 'recycle', I do of course mean 'redistributing' them through some type of charity scheme, etc. The thought of recycling them like you would recycle paper or other waste is just silly, obviously.
Personaly, I dont see the problem with this if the medications are blister packed or bottles are tamper-resistant. After all, if I purchased a tub of vitamin pills from a health food shop and I wanted to return them, as long as they were unopened the shop would happily refund my money and the vitamins would go strait back on the shelf, right?
Shame.
