<div style="direction:ltr; font-family:Calibri; color:#000000; font-size:12pt">The whole works would have to be disposed of as a HW in MN. That is, unless no one using it puts a HW pharm in it. Then I don't know what the recommendation is for disposal. I would
think the best practice of high temperature incineration still applies.
<div><br>
<div>Treatment in a container or other RCRA treatment regulations might apply if the business is using it in an attempt to render the mixture non-hazardous, but I don't think that is the point of these systems. I think the value is in making the pharms more
difficult for employees to divert. These are handy "non-retrievable" systems for those concerned about that issue, but they have nothing to do with "disposal" really. I would also question any company that claims these systems meet DEA's non-retrievable standard
because I don't think they give out clear cut approvals for these. Maybe that has changed. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For the medical industry or pharm collection sites that are confident they have a good system in place to manage waste pharms (bins and containers), this is an unnecessary step/cost. They don't replace the need to handle the mixture as a HW. In MN we allow
HH pharms to be managed at WTE facilities and hospitals/pharmacies manage what they generate as a HW unless they sort haz/non-haz. I don't see the point of doing that type of sort unless you want to be able to throw some pharms in with regular solid waste. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If I look at this from the perspective of collection of household pharms, I don't see how it fits in with DEA's regulations or bin collection because I don't think the pharmacists are supposed to handle the drugs and I'm not sure if they would want to
police the box to see that customers are using it right (empyting pill bottles and foil/plastic packs). </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Again, not a "drug disposal" product as far as I can see, but I'd like to hear what others think.</div>

<p style="margin-right:0in; margin-bottom:8.0pt; margin-left:0in"><span style="font-family:"Calibri Regular"">I would like to introduce you to a new product that was developed at the University of Texas in Arlington for drug disposal. The name of this product
is Drug Dispose All.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""></span></p>
<p style="margin-right:0in; margin-bottom:8.0pt; margin-left:0in"><span style="font-family:"Calibri Regular"">This may sound like an infomercial—and it is—but—You won't find one product in the market that will be the answer to every situation. The more options
you have, and the more knowledge you have about those options, the better decisions you can make about your situation.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""></span></p>
<p style="margin-right:0in; margin-bottom:8.0pt; margin-left:0in"><span style="font-family:"Calibri Regular"">Drug Dispose All is a chemical solution that comes in a plastic container. To use this product you simply open the container and place pills, capsules,
patches and or liquids into the container and shake it up. Within 30 minutes all of the drugs will have been neutralized. They will be rendered both inert as well as non-retrievable meeting the DEA definition of destruction. Drug Dispose All is a multi-use
item so you can keep using it until the container is full. Once full you can dispose of the full container in your everyday trash.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""></span></p>
<p style="margin-right:0in; margin-bottom:8.0pt; margin-left:0in"><span style="font-family:"Calibri Regular"">You can dispose of controlled substances using Drug Dispose All. Of course you must follow DEA regulations on documentation.

</span><b><span style="font-family:"Calibri Bold"">NOT</span></b><span style="font-family:"Calibri Regular""> for disposing of hazardous materials or chemicals.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""></span></p>
<p style="margin-right:0in; margin-bottom:8.0pt; margin-left:0in"><span style="font-family:"Calibri Regular"">Drug Dispose All comes in three sizes: 8 oz., 1 Gallon and 5 Gallon. As a point of reference you can process approximately 3,000 pills using a 1
Gallon container.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""></span></p>
<p style="margin-right:0in; margin-bottom:8.0pt; margin-left:0in"><span style="font-family:"Calibri Regular"">We will be happy to supply test data that substantiates the claims of drugs being destroyed using this product.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""></span></p>
