Medicines and health
You can take unused medicines, prescription or otherwise, and empty inhalers back to your local pharmacy, like Boots. Incidentally this applies to all unused medicines, including tablets or liquids. Do not be tempted to flush them down the loo!
Your local chemist, including all Boots pharmacies, are obliged to accept back unwanted medicines from patients.
If you have empty blister packs that contained medical tablets, these can be recycled in your blue top kerbside bin in the same way as all foil containers. Please do check the blister packs are empty.
Boots also take and recycle contact lenses.
