You could take it to the Red Cross, doctors without borders, mundi pharmaceutical or even immigrant reception centers.

Another option is to take it to the recycling point of the pharmacy.

Hello

It happened to me when I changed mixed insulinas for Lantus and Novorapid.I had a box to open.
I went to my pharmacy and asked if I knew someone to use that insulin (I don't remember what it was called) and they told me yes, they had a client who used it.So they stayed to give it to him.

I hope you find a better solution than recycling.
Greetings

Hello everyone thanks for your answers already take them this morning to the Red Cross, it is very happy since there are people who cannot allow it so you will surely reach people who need it
