INTRODUCTION
o Hospital pharmacies in the United States purchase over
4 billion hazardous pharmaceuticals annually,
generating more than 84,000 tons of hazardous
waste.
o According to a U.S. Geological survey, pharmaceutical
contaminants were found in 80% of sampled water,
contaminating drinking water.
o In India, a city like New Delhi with about 40,000 beds
generates about 60 metric tons of hospital waste per
day.
o The sorting of pharmaceutical waste is a challenging
issue.

DEFINITION
Pharmaceutical waste is synonymous with
o drug waste
o unused or expired drugs
o unused or expired prescription and over-the-
counter human drugs, veterinary drugs, diagnostic
agents, and nutritional supplements.
Scrap: Materials like rejected foils, bottles, cans, tins etc.
which have a resale value.
Trash: This material is to be discarded or disposed of by
suitable means and don’t have a resale value. e.g. dust,
unsalable materials.10/31
PHARMACEUTICAL WASTE
o All unsealed syrups, creams, ointment or eye drops
(expired or unexpired)
o All cold chain damaged unexpired pharmaceuticals
that should have been stored in a cold chain but were
not (for example: insulin, polypeptide
hormones, gamma globulins and vaccines)
o All bulk or loose tablets and capsules. If unexpired
these should only be used when the container is still
sealed, properly labeled or still within the original
unbroken blister packs;

o Any items used in cleaning up a spill (vermiculite,
paper towels, etc.) must be treated as a waste
pharmaceutical, either hazardous or non-hazardous.
o Waste materials containing chemotherapy drug
residues or excess drugs (syringes, i.v bags, tubing,
vials, etc.)
o Open containers of drugs that cannot be used
o Containers that held acute hazardous waste drugs.

TYPES OF PHARMACEUTICAL WASTE
1. Controlled substances (Special disposal needed):
o Cytotoxic waste:
Cytotoxic substances and residues (includes all
items contaminated by such substances, or used
in the delivery of chemotherapy for cancer
treatment, and unused or discarded
preparations).
o Following category of drugs were also required some
special consideration required for disposalo Narcotics,
o Psychotropic substances;
o Anti-infective drugs,
o Antiseptics and disinfectants etc..

2. Chemical Wastes:
o Includes Pharmaceutical wastes (includes outdated,
contaminated and discarded medicines)
3. Potentially infectious wastes (Biomedical wastes):
o Includes Microbiology and Biotechnology Wasteo Wastes from laboratory cultures, stocks or specimens of micro-
organisms, live or attenuated vaccines, human and animal cell
culture used in research and infectious agents from research
and industrial laboratories

devices used for the transfer of cultures)
o Sharp wastes includes
o Needles
o Scalpels

WASTE DISPOSAL METHODS
o Waste management is the collection, transport,
processing, recycling or disposal of waste materials.
o The term usually relates to materials produced by
human activity, and is generally undertaken to
reduce their effect on health, the environment or
aesthetics.
o Waste management can involve solid, liquid, gaseous
or radioactive substances, with different methods and
fields of expertise for each.

o Waste management methods vary widely between
areas for many reasons, including type of waste
material, nearby land uses, and the area available.
o Constraints in funding for disposal of waste
pharmaceuticals necessitate cost-effective
management and methods.
o The main way to achieve this is to sort the material
to minimize the need for expensive or complicated
disposal methods.

DISPOSAL METHODS TYPES OF PHARMACEUTICAL COMMENTS
(1) Return to manufacturer All bulk waste pharmaceuticalsIt’s a time consuming
method.
(2) Incineration:
o High temperature
incineration (> 1200°C)
Solids, semisolids, powders,
antineoplastic
Expensive method. Mainly
for antineoplastic agents.
o Medium temperature
incineration (max 850°C)
Powders, solids, controlled
substances.
Not for antineoplastic
agents.
(3) Immobilization:
o Waste encapsulation Powders, liquids, solids.
Inexpensive and performed
by unsophisticated
equipments.
o InertizationSolids, liquids, semisolids,
antineoplastic.
Inexpensive and performed
by unsophisticated
equipments.
(4) Landfill:
o Highly engineered sanitary
Landfill
Limited quantities of untreated solids,
Semi-solids and powders. Disposal of
waste pharmaceuticals after
Immobilization preferable. PVC
plastics.
Worst option as it pollutes
land and reduce its fertility
percentage.
o Engineered landfill
Waste solids, semi-solids and
powders,
Preferably after immobilization. PVC
Plastics.
Worst option as it pollutes
land and reduce its fertility
percentage.

WASTE DISPOSAL PROCEDUREo Any product requiring disposal should initially be separated
from its packaging.
e.g. glass, plastic, other containers delay destruction
o Risks associated with destruction of the product -potential for
product to get diverted, legitimately or otherwise during
disposal sequence and contamination of ground water
o Ideally, Incineration procedures have preference over landfill.
When incineration procedure is used, product in plastic or
other flammable packaging may not need to be returned to
bulk.
o Disposal procedure should involve agents with a proven
record of dealing with such sensitive materials or use of the
company personnel to accompany the material from plant to
disposal.

PRINTED PACKAGING DISPOSAL
o Disposal of printed packaging components
(labels, inserts, and cartons) poses no health risk.
o Ineffective disposal such as in the public landfill,
can give rise to public concern that product may
be associated with the packaging.
o Such materials should preferably be
incinerated.

GENERAL TRASH AND SEWAGE
o Normal local services should be adequate.
o Ensure that product and the packaging waste does
not get intermixed.
o Internal procedures should be sufficiently rigorous
and monitored
o Containers used within the plant to accumulate
waste materials should be clearly marked to
denote their designated use.

o It takes an overall approach to
creating sustainable system that
are economical, affordable,
socially acceptable and
economically effective.
o The key function of this system is
collection and sorting of waste.

LIQUID WASTE MANAGEMENT
Description and Purpose
Liquid waste management includes procedures and
practices to prevent discharge of pollutants to the
storm drain system or to watercourses as a result of
the creation, collection, and disposal of non-hazardous
liquid wastes.

LIMITATIONS
o Disposal of some liquid wastes may be subject to
specific laws and regulations or to requirements of
other permits secured for the construction project
(e.g. Army Corps permits, Coastal Commission
permits, etc.).
o Liquid waste management does not apply to
dewatering operations (NS-2 Dewatering Operations),
solid waste management (WM-5, Solid Waste
Management), hazardous wastes (WM-6, Hazardous
Waste Management), or concrete slurry residue (WM-
8, Concrete waste management).
