I have been a very interested reader of pharmwaste and am happy that this =
list exists. One question that I think was posed and possibly answered =
was, "are there recyclers of medicine bottles that exist in the U.S.?" A =
similar question, below, came over another national list and I looked for =
pharmwaste archives and did not find them. Do archives exist? Answers to =
these questions would be greatly appreciated.

"Hi everybody. Here's a question from the Department of Veterans
Affairs. I looked in the JTR archives and the Hospitals for a Healthy

Is there a market for recycling medicine containers (e.g., pill
bottles)? If so, is there a list of companies that can recycle these
items into useful new products?"
