Safe disposal of medicines is so important! If you can’t get your hands on a deactivation system bag, this blog post offers other alternatives that help you safely get rid of OTC meds: https://t.co/hbIFKOKyAs
Don't flush those meds! You can dispose of old medications with deactivation systems! Simply put your medication in the bag, add warm water, seal it, shake it, and throw it away. The bag neutralizes the drugs and keeps them from leaking into the environment.
🍂 It's okay not to be okay. Help is always available if you or someone you love is having a hard time, or for those struggling with mental health or substance use.
