Proper disposal is crucial because pharmaceutical waste can be classified as hazardous waste. To ensure the safety of yourself, your community, and the environment, it’s essential to understand what qualifies as hazardous waste:
1) The material is already regulated by your state environmental agency.
2) The sole active ingredient in the material is listed as hazardous by the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).
3) Its material contains ingredient(s) that result in the pharmaceutical exhibiting characteristics of hazardous waste (corrosive, reactive/explosive, ignitable, or toxic/radioactive).
