» Feature Writer Anthony Lee - Collecting unused drugs for lower income patients?


In some places in the United States, there is talk of recycling drugs. In other words, collecting prescription drugs that are left over and unused and giving them to patients who have a low income, especially the uninsured. What do you think of this idea?

I think it's a great idea as long as the medications are still viable. Why discard worthwhile medications, especially when they can benefit someone who doesn't have access to them regularly.
