GEM Edwards Pharmacy does not currently offer any disposal services for unused or expired medications. We recommend following the established FDA guidelines for safe disposal, which helps to prevent misuse or harm to others and also to protect the environment. Generally the best way to dispose of most unused or expired medicines (both prescription and over the counter) is to drop off the medicine at a drug take-back site, location, or program immediately. Please note that needles and syringes typically require different disposal. Visit the FDA website for further instructions.
