Today our pharmacy received a large return of medication, all from one patient.
Medication waste costs the NHS an estimated £300 million every year, money that could fund nurses, treatments, and vital services.

Each unused box also means:
💰 Resources lost that could support other care
⚠️ Risks to patient safety from hoarding or confusion
📦 Extra strain on pharmacy teams and supply chains

👥 Patients: order only what you need, and speak up if treatment changes.

‼️ If your prescription is sent to the pharmacy automatically, by a process known as ‘Repeat Dispensing’: please return to us any medicines you will not need until your next supply, before you leave. Pharmacies can reuse any unwanted medicine(s) for another patient, saving vital NHS money 💰✅. Shared from another pharmacy.
