Disposal of Expired Drugs (May 2010)
Outdated and expired drugs are usually disposed of as regular waste. As a result, toxic materials may contaminate the soil and ground water, finally reaching our food. Especially hazardous are: hormones, antibiotics and cytotoxic drugs.

The Safety and Environment Unit has assigned cardboard containers designated for the purpose of disposing old and expired drugs. These containers will be collected from the departments by the Safety and Environment Unit and treated according to regulations.
