Oh
What do you do with the used pens [insulin/byetta]. As we are told only to use 60 times, they still have a little of the drug in them. We are also told not to put them in the household rubbish, as they still have a little of the drug in them, & someone might try to use it!!!
I have quite a collection of used pens, & have asked the chemist to take them back - my request has been met with mixed reactions. Some say they can take them as "unused medicine" for disposal, whilst other chemists say they can't!
What do you do with your used pens?
Would be useful to know?
Many thanks
