Conversation: expired pharmaceutical drop off site
Subject: expired pharmaceutical drop off site

Hi Sierra,
 
   I am a pharmacist in Northeast Ohio who is trying to find out some
information as to who I might be able to contact as to setting up a site for
patients to bring their unused/expired pharmaceuticals.  Through my
searching. Someone forwarded me the product stewardship site.
 
   Can you help me in telling me if you know of any companies that are
presently working in Ohio or perhaps would want to work in Ohio to establish
a medicine return program at my pharmacy?
 
    Thanks for your time.
 
     Kathy Karas, R.Ph.
