Yes, to your questions Amy. We have placed the MedSafe receptacle and pre-paid inner liner to collect ultimate user controls and non-controls in several pharmacies in IL.

Greetings!
I wanted to check and see what the status was in IL regarding pharmacies being able to take back meds under the new federal law. Can they take back controls and non-controls, just non-controls, or no meds at all?
If pharmacies can take back meds, are there any that are currently participating?
Regards,
Amy
