Re: Needle Disposal Free Sharps Container!!!

[Guest guest]

Enliven has a service where they send you a free sharps container, when you fill

one you just request another. Here is the link.

I have had one for a couple of months already and it is not even half full.

Re: [ ] Needle Disposal

Hope I don't get in trouble but, my pharmacist told me to get a milk jug and to

dispose of my needles in it. When it's full, duck tape it closed and put it in

the regular trash.

My rheumy also told me that this was fine.

I live in Los Angeles county, Calif. I spoke to Enliven/Enbrel. They

said to go by my county recommendations. I checked and they said to

use and old plastic bottle, fill it up and tape it closed. Then throw

in the trash. I think that is not a very good idea.

I am working on it.
