As a last resort, following these steps for safe disposal of prescription medications:

• Remove all personal identification from the bottles.            
• Crush and mix unused drugs with an undesirable substance such as coffee grounds, table scraps or dirt.                    
• Place this mixture in a sealed container and put it in your trash can on the day of pick-up.
