[Pharmwaste] Disposal of Dispensed Controlled Substances in Hospitals

[Kernen, Brandon]

I am looking for examples of detailed standard operating procedures for
disposing of  "dispensed" controlled substances in a hospital setting -
both residual and bulk volumes.

 

I have seen a lot of hospital plans for medicine disposal, but just
about all lack specific instructions for rendering drugs
"non-recoverable."   The plans just say the drugs need to be
"non-recoverable" and are absent of explicit guidance on how to achieve
this.

 

Thank you.
