Si ha terminado con un medicamento con receta y le quedan pastillas, o si tiene alguna receta sin usar en la casa, es importante deshacerse de ellas de manera segura. Lo mejor que puede hacer es llevarlos a una caja de eliminación de drogas o evento de devolución.
Use esta lista para ver cómo deshacerse de los medicamentos o desechos médicos.
La mayoría de los analgésicos recetados se denominan sustancias controladas porque son muy adictivos, especialmente si no se usan correctamente. Para deshacerse de los analgésicos recetados, asegúrese de que el lugar de eliminación de medicamentos que está visitando acepte sustancias controladas.
También puede deshacerse de las agujas de forma segura en ENCORE Needle Exchange (ubicado en 557 Broad Street, Providence, RI, 02907 – teléfono: 401-781-0665).
