S2 Ep1684: Medicine Waste and What We Can All Do About It…

from RNIB Conversations · host RNIB Connect Radio

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.To get in touch with Elizabeth you can email [email protected] or for more information visit - https://elizabethroddick.comImage: Picture showing Elizabeth standing in her pharmacy, dressed in her white pharmacist coat and a colourful bandana around her neck, she's smiling warmly at the camera with her hands slightly raised.
