The answers to the Drug Disposal Quiz from episode 242 of The Pharmacists Voice Podcast are the focus of today’s episode. 

My audience is typically pharmacists, pharmacy students, pharmacy technicians, pharmacy professors, pharmacy owners, and medical narrators.  The drug disposal quiz questions are for pharmacy professionals who field questions about drug disposal from well-meaning patients, friends, family, pet-owners, and community members.  These questions (and answers) are meant to prepare you for drug disposal questions so that you can field them at any time of the year.  

I asked 10 questions and crowdsources answers.  In this episode, you will hear input from a number of sources. First is a panel discussion featuring Brittany Sandidge, Ruth Emptage, PharmD, and Kelsey Schmuhl, PharmD from The Ohio State University College of Pharmacy’s Generation RX Program, a medication safety-focused educational outreach program.  Then, I’ll share responses from two DEA Representatives.  One is a National Take Back Initiative Coordinator.  The other is a Community Outreach & Prevention Support Program Manager.  Last, but not least, I’ll share input from my poison prevention educator friends Dr. Wendy Stephan and Angel Bivens, RPh and the Poison Help Line (specifically, The Central Ohio Poison Center).
