Incineration in specialised pharmaceutical incinerators is the recommended process suggested by most health and monitoring organisations.
Pharmaceutical incineration is seen as the best way to destroy intravenous (IV) preparations, partially used vials, syringes, and IVs, discontinued, unused preparations, unused unit dose repacks, patients’ personal medications and outdated pharmaceuticals.
All waste should be segregated appropriately before it is incinerated to ensure you comply to local guidelines.
