Caption: Here's the Right Way to Dispose of Old Medication. There are many wrong ways to dispose of your old, expired, unused or unwanted meds. Flushing pills causes them to go into our waterways and pollute our environment. Trashing them is also a no-no, as this presents a danger to wildlife. Disposing of medication with kitty litter or coffee grounds won't deter those determined to use. It could also harm kids. "There are horrible stories of children getting into the trash, seeing colorful pills that look like candy and then having horrible reactions.", Heidi Sanborn, via HuffPost. Instead of flushing or trashing your meds, seek out a responsible take-back dropbox or collection event. THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
