I worked in a hospital pharmacy for 5years. All controlled drugs were held in lock up until a fed DEA agent would come to the hospital and watch as a pharmasist would then place them in a bucket of water then flushed down the toilet.A few times the DEA person would call and say to flush them because he was too busy. The hospital that I worked had almost zero theft so the trusted the employies... Very few expired drugs ever got away!
