Recycling ... does anyone do it?

Hello,

In the hospital they told me that what left over the roads we use, we throw it ... but I would like to recycle them since our son uses, for now, some doses so tiny that practically the road must be "throwing" it full.

What do you do?

Is there any way that insulin could serve for someone or for something?

Thank you!

Ask in the pharmacy, there they collect the expired medications or that we have left although I do not know if they collect insulin.

Hi Helora, when they changed my insulin, I had plenty of bolis and told me in the ambulatory that took them, that they would put them in the fridge, surely for other people.The needles and strips of measuring the sugar, I keep them and also take them to the ambulatory, the nurse, and the empty bolis, to plastics to recycle.Even another, that does well.

Another possibility is to give them mundi or mundi doctors

Another possibility is to give them worldly world -world doctors

I would love that, I'm going to inform myself how I can do it, or if someone knows it, please tell me.

Thank you

In the ambulatory I have not asked this, but in the hospital yes and they told me that the remaining insulin throws it.What we use could only take advantage of the roads, which practically remain full after one month, the rest is one use.
