Expired Drug Disposal Services for Healthcare Providers

Why Expired Drug Disposal Requires Full Compliance

Improper disposal of expired medications, especially Schedule II–V drugs, can lead to serious regulatory and safety violations:

• DEA compliance violations

• Environmental contamination (EPA risk)

• Risk of drug diversion or misuse

• Liability for improper destruction

We help you dispose of expired pharmaceutical waste legally, with complete documentation, secure containers, and traceable destruction for audits and inspections.

• Schedule I–V controlled substances

• Over-the-counter medications

• Recalled, returned, or damaged products

• Pharmaceutical waste from LTC, hospice, clinics, and pharmacies

Whether you're clearing stock, responding to a recall, or handling patient returns, we’ll guide you through the most efficient disposal method.
