What should we be disposing of when it comes to our medicine cabinet?
The FDA urges all of us to dispose of medications properly. The best way is to take advantage of drug take-back events held by various communities. You can go to www.disposemymeds.org to find out where in your community a take-back event is being held. Let me provide a word of caution when it comes to expired medications, these drugs might not work well or could even be dangerous. Do not risk it. Also, make sure you notice if anything that seems off. Pills that are crumbly, clear liquids gone, cloudy and anything with an odd smell may not be safe.
