<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS"'>I have been
trying to get one clear answer- and haven't had much success. I have tried EPA,
DNR, Iowa Board of Pharmacy, local landfill and others. I have expired sample
prescription drugs to dispose of and I don't want to break any regulations,
however I have been told I am a "waste generating facility" and
therefore have different rules. It has been recommended to me to mix them with
undesirable substances and put in regular trash and that they are not
considered hazardous.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS"'>I do not have the
option of giving them to a charitable organization because they will only take
them( in the Iowa Drug Repository program) with a year left on the expiration
and our offices keep them until they expire. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS"'>Is there any
clear guideline federally or in Iowa that I have missed?</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
