Proper disposal of pharmaceutical waste is essential, as it is often deemed hazardous and poses threats to public safety, the environment, and your business. Several factors determine whether waste is classified as hazardous. This includes regulation by your state’s environmental agency or the presence of active ingredients that are hazardous under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). Additionally, if the waste is corrosive, reactive, explosive, ignitable, toxic, or radioactive, it requires special handling. Understanding these criteria is crucial for responsible waste management.
