💊 Throughout September, our PPG are running a 'Medication Amnesty' to encourage and promote the safe disposal of unused or out of date medication 💊

🗑️Any medication, whether it is prescribed to your or bought over the counter, should be properly disposed of by certified waste contractors and not in household waste. Medication not disposed of properly can cause harm to other people, animals and the environment.

⭐If you have any medications that you no longer need, or have passed their expiration date please bring them to your local pharmacy or GP practice dispensary for anonymous safe disposal. If you cannot get out and receive your medication by delivery, please give your unwanted medications to your delivery driver who will ensure they are passed on for safe disposal.

🐾Any medications prescribed for animal use can be disposed of via your local veterinarian practice

💉Any sharps used to administer medication by injection should be disposed of using a sharps bin, which can be provided by your pharmacy or GP Practice, these should be returned to your local council for disposal - https://www.sholland.gov.uk/article/5829/Sharps-Collections
For further information on the safe disposal of medications, please visit - https://cpe.org.uk/.../disposal-of-unwanted-medicines/

Find out how to dispose of used needles.
