moment. I am aware of only two published studies that try to assess what
people do with old/unused medications, both via surveys. Neither directly
answers the question, but both at least give a glimmer of what avenue people
use for disposal, and the more recent study also attempts to proportion out use
vs. disposal avenues.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

have not tracked down the original article), appears to be the only American
data published: Kuspis, D.A., and E.P. Krenzelok. 1996.
"What happens to expired medications? A survey of community
medication disposal." <i><span style='font-style:italic'>Vet. Human
Toxicol</span></i>. 38: 48-49. The survey found that 54 percent of
people dispose of unused medications in the solid waste, 35 percent via the

summarized in the following source).</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

at this issue: Bound, J.P., and N. Voulvoulis. 2005.
"Household disposal of pharmaceuticals as a pathway for aquatic

). This survey of residents in southeast <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">England</st1:place></st1:country-region> found that, on average,
half do not finish prescription medications and thus end up with waste
medications to dispose. While 80 percent of pain meds are typically used
up, only 18 percent of antibiotics are used as prescribed, leaving 82 percent
as waste. Roughly half of beta-blockers and anti-depressants go
unused. Overall, British residents dispose of 63 percent of used meds in
the solid waste, 11 percent in the toilet, and bring 22 percent back to
pharmacies. The authors present a very useful conceptual model for
quantifying the pathways of pharmaceuticals from domestic use into the
environment. They conclude, "...disposal of unused pharmaceuticals
either by household waste or via the sink or toilet may be a prominent route
that requires greater attention."</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

could begin to get our arms around a rough quantification of waste

with more detailed info he had provided (back in july?)
regarding "non-compliance rates" (% of meds not used by residential
recipients). i believe he referred to another person and
report (by a pharmaceutical company?) that indicated 40 to 60 % of
drugs prescribed are "tossed". the med's final resting
place (landfill or toilet?) i don't believe was mentioned because of lack of
data. i believe he even estimated the monetary losses to states'
healthcare programs to be about $1 million for a state the size of <st1:State
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">arkansas</st1:place></st1:State> (~2.5 million
population) because of this waste. considering today's economic woes and
the rising costs of healthcare, one would think state legislators' eyes would

font-family:Arial'>I just received a call from a staffer at the US House of
Representatives Science Committee inquiring as to what percentage of drugs
entering the environment, primarily through drain/sewer disposal, can be
attributed to consumers flushing unwanted medications. I do not know of any
studies on this or available data. Do any of you have information you can share
that I can refer back to this gentleman? It appears the House of
Representatives is starting to become interested in this issue so I think we
should do all we can to make the case for enabling legislation, especially with
respect to DEA and funding of programs. Thanks much! </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
