Environmentally friendly medication waste disposal is critical in this day and age in order for healthcare organizations to meet their accreditation compliance standards. Here we detail how Drug Destructor bags achieve environmentally safe medication disposal.
How Does Drug Destructor Work?
Each Drug Destructor bag contains a proprietary sachet containing powder. Upon contact with any liquid the sachet ruptures and the contents of the sachet absorb medications rendering the medication non-retrievable and unusable. Our research has shown that approximately 95% of institutional medication waste is liquid waste but the Drug Destructor bag can also accept solid medication waste including tablets and capsules.
Working together, the contents of the sachet make Drug Destructor an ideal tool for managing medication waste in an environmentally responsible way.
