How to sort medications?
💊 Sorting medications at home – a small step with a big impact
A sustainable everyday life also starts in the home medicine cabinet. It is worth stopping from time to time and checking the expiration dates of all your medication supplies – it is important for both your health and the environment.
🌿 How to act correctly?
✔️ We check expiration dates
We do not use expired medications.
✔️ We sort packaging
We separate the cardboard boxes and take them to paper sorting.
✔️ We deliver our own medications to pharmacies
Never throw tablets, syrups, capsules, and other medications in household waste or down the drain.
They should be handed over to pharmacies in special containers for disposal.
🌱 Why is this so important?
• Medications can contaminate water and soil
• They can enter the environment and affect living things
• Proper disposal protects both people and nature
Sustainability is not just about shopping without packaging.
It is also about acting responsibly with what is already in our homes.
I encourage you to include this checkup as a regular family habit — for example, once a year or before the change of seasons.
Small steps. Big impact. 💚
