Pharmaceutical products should never be flushed down the toilet or drain, burned in the open or thrown in the trash because:
- These items can contaminate the environment if they get into the drinking and ground water.
- Pharmaceuticals may kill bacteria or produce drug resistance bacteria in sewage treatment plants and septic systems if flushed down the drain.
- Burning can release toxic pollutants into the air.
- If these items are scavenged from your trash receptacles the drugs can be illegally used or sold.
- If taken by mistake can cause serious health problems.
