Medical and pharmaceutical waste

Waste pharmaceuticals and other medical waste can be released into the environment through improper disposal. Long-term exposure to pharmaceuticals in water supplies is a concern because it may harm animals and plants that live in the water, as well as humans. Improper disposal of unwanted pharmaceuticals also increases the risk of drug abuse and accidental poisoning.
