Why should you sort your personal pharmacy and recycle unused drugs? To protect his family and our environment.
Keeping unused medicines at home is taking risks. A child can confuse it with a candy, a senior can take it for another, or overdose because he would have forgotten that he had already taken his treatment. Why not throw unused medicines in your trash cans? Because they are pollutants for our environment. Why bring them back to the pharmacy? To recycle them. In fact, medicines not used, but whose expiry date has not been reached, are redistributed in the poorest countries. The others, those whose expiry date has passed, are burned
The Cyclamed association has set up a whole circuit for collecting and recycling medicines.
Soon pharmacies will be able to deliver drugs individually, which will avoid overdoses and waste.
