Deterra Bag

A Deterra Bag is an easy, at-home medication disposal method that destroys unwanted and expired medications safely and permanently, making them unavailable for misuse, theft or accidental ingestion. The bag disposes of and deactivates pills, liquids, films, patches, and cream medications. This disposal option is also environmentally safe.

Using a Deterra Bag is a simple.

Put the medication into the Deterra Bag…

Add water, seal, shake, and throw in your regular household trash
