Safe disposal options
Medications can be harmful if they are kept where others can use them accidentally or on purpose. Safely disposing of unwanted or expired medications is an important step in helping to ensure medications are not accidentally used or intentionally misused by someone else. Here are some safe disposal options:

DisposeRx packets
DisposeRx packets make it safe to throw medication in your home trash. The packets have a powder that you mix with water right in the medication bottle so that the medication becomes unusable and safe for the environment. To get DisposeRx packets for your medications, just ask in any Walgreens pharmacy. For additional information, visit DisposeRx.com.

Medication disposal kiosks
Almost 1,500 Walgreens pharmacies offer kiosks where you can bring your unwanted, unused or expired medication and drop it in. The kiosks accept most prescription and over-the-counter medications.
