For this week’s check in with Glasgow Based Pharmacist Elizabeth Roddick we are returning to the topic of medicine waste as Elizabeth shares some new data with RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey suggesting how much medicine is wasted.  

Then to the cost implications of the waste and some of the reasons why so much medicine is wasted.  

To what happens to un-opened medicine packs when we take them back to the Pharmacy and why it is better to give money to charities rather than donating medicines.  

Ending with a final message from Elizabeth around medicine waste.
