Pharmaceutical waste management is a critical issue across the world. In order to ensure safety from hazardous waste, several government organizations such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Environment Protection Agency (EPA), and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) have introduced various programs for proper waste disposal. For instance, in April 2016, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) hosted the 11th National Prescription Drug Take-back Day. The program was aimed at providing a safe and convenient means of disposal of unwanted, controlled substance prescription drugs.
