We have been receiving requests for information regarding the safe disposal of prescription drugs. With the recognition of potential impact on the water environment, the Office of National Drug Control Policy has provided the following information: • Take unused, unneeded, or expired prescription drugs out of their original containers and throw them in the trash. • Mixing prescription drugs with an undesirable substance, such as used coffee grounds or kitty litter, and putting them in impermeable, non-descript containers, such as empty cans or sealable bags, will further ensure the drugs are not diverted. • Flush prescription drugs down the toilet only if the label or accompanying patient information specifically instructs doing so. • The FDA advises that the following drugs be flushed down the toilet instead of thrown in the trash: Actiq (fentanyl citrate) Daytrana Transdermal Patch (methylphenidate) Duragesic Transdermal System (fentanyl) OxyContin Tablets (oxycodone) Avinza Capsules (morphine sulfate) Baraclude Tablets (entecavir) Reyataz Capsules (atazanavir sulfate) Tequin Tablets (gatifloxacin) Zerit for Oral Solution (stavudine) Meperidine HCl Tablets Percocet (Oxycodone and Acetaminophen) Xyrem (Sodium Oxybate) Fentora (fentanyl buccal tablet)
