You can safely dispose of unused or expired medication by taking them to a local pharmacy or medical center. Most pharmacies and medical centers have drop-off locations where you can anonymously dispose of medication. You can also check with local law enforcement agencies to see if they have a drug take-back program.

Medicine that is past its expiration date or that you no longer need should be disposed of safely. The best way to do this is to take the medicine to a local pharmacy or medication drop box. If you cannot return the medicine to a pharmacy, you can also crush the tablets and mix them with water to make a slurry, then pour the slurry down the sink.
