How disposing of medications improperly effects our lives:

  1. Personally: Unused prescription drugs pose a risk of abuse and accidental poisoning, but improper disposal can harm the environment and contaminate our water supply. Deterra Pouches are a convenient, environmentally sound option for proper drug disposal right at home.
  2. Healthcare: Healthcare professionals are at the forefront of the fight against prescription drug misuse. Deterra’s drug disposal products help patients and healthcare facilities prevent misuse and diversion, while being compliant with many drug disposal laws.
  3. Environment: Pharmaceuticals can pollute our water and unintentionally expose us to the chemicals in these medications. Recent studies have found that medicines flushed down the drain can contaminate our lakes and streams, which can hurt fish and other aquatic wildlife, and end up in our drinking water. Same for throwing medications away-- they can seep out of trash bags and into our ground water or end up in the wrong hands.
  4. Governments: Leftover prescription drugs fuel the US opioid crisis in our communities. Deterra is a proven, cost-effective prevention product used by law enforcement and government agencies nationwide to help keep unused medications out of the wrong hands and prevent addiction before it starts.
  5. Employment: Employee substance abuse costs employers time and money in lost productivity and increased medical & insurance costs. Protect your employees from the risk of drug abuse with a proven prevention solution and save your business money.
