Sorry about the loss, My brother in law died over the summer under hospice care andhe had alot of unused meds left, when Hospice gt there one ot the first things they did was ask for the unused drugs, count them with my sister in law there and flushed them. So I guess thats what they do with them. Thepharmacy can't take them back nor can you donate them so I guess flushing is the way to do it,sorry again, Tim
