We are honored to be a key partner in the “Don’t Dispose of Medicines Carelessly” event organized by the JCI Tai Ping Shan. As a pharmaceutical logistics representative, JANCO provided a drug recycling collecting warehouse. We arranged for pharmacists to inventory and categorize the pharmaceuticals in the warehouse following the recycling event. The drugs were then given to the Chemical Waste Treatment Center of the Environmental Protection Department for burning to lessen the pollution that remaining drugs contributed to the environment.
Over 7.2 million tablets were gathered overall during this event! The top five categories of drugs collected include antipyretic analgesics, oral antidiabetic drugs, painkillers, cholesterol-lowering drugs, and antihypertensive drugs.
We want to thank all the partners and supporters who participated in this event. It is through everyone’s collective effort that this event has achieved such remarkable results! We will continue to work hard and contribute to the community and the environment.
