Disposal of unused medicines from households in Cape TownOkonkwo Ihebe, Miriam Oluchi January 2019 (has links)
Magister Pharmaceuticae - MPharm / Evidence indicates that most South African households do not dispose of unused medicines in the
manner prescribed by the medicine’s regulatory authority. This trend is not unique to South Africa,
but several developing nations have also lagged. An in-depth understanding of practices of
disposal of unused as well as expired medicines is cardinal and critical to the development of an
effective programme to reverse the situation. This study aimed to identify factors influencing the
disposal practices of household unused and expired medicines, and the role of pharmacists in
creating an efficient and robust system for proper disposal of unused medicine from households in
the southern suburbs area of Cape Town.
