if they have some leftover darvocet i would not recommend taking that. we also want to make sure that people understand that they should not be saving medications and keeping them in their cabinets for a rainy day. they need to dispose off them so therefore there is no risk of possible poisonings or teen drug abuse. so one of the things we recommend now is disposing of your medications but not flushing them down the toilet. there is a new procedure that's very easy to follow and all it requires is a ziploc bag. get a ziploc bag and pour the medication into it. put a little water into it to help it dissolve. you may want to crush it; take a hammer or a mallet and actually make sure it dissolves even more. then take something like kitty litter or coffee grinds or sawdust and put it in the bag to make it very unattractive. zip up the bag and put it in the trash it's that easy. why is it so important that we want to get rid of our medications? because unfortunately today teen drug abuse has really become a big problem especially in pain medications. we find out that teens are going to their medicine cabinets right in their house and taking extra medications that were not used anymore.
i have some leftover darvocet. is it safe to take that at my next schedule dosing time?
