Reliable and simple service solutions for drug disposal
 

With safety at the forefront of its solutions, healthcare facilities are choosing Daniels for customer-focused and cost-effective denaturing and disposal of Controlled Substances.


Why Controlled Substance Disposal


In healthcare facilities, the management and handling of controlled substances are governed by strict regulations set forth by Health Canada. These substances are categorized into schedules based on their potential for abuse, medical use, and safety. Regardless of their categorization, all controlled substances require specialized containment that complies with Health Canada's disposal requirements. Healthcare facilities must comply with these regulations to ensure safe and secure storage, distribution, and ultimately the disposal of controlled substances. Compliance with Health Canada regulations regarding controlled substances is essential for hospitals and healthcare facilities to ensure patient safety, prevent diversion and misuse, and maintain legal and regulatory compliance.

Drug Disposal Products

Daniels provides a choice of two activated carbon based drug denaturing systems to meet the unique requirements of all healthcare facilities.

Daniels is proud to be an advocate and distributor of Rx Destroyera range of fast acting chemical destruction solvents that make the witness wasting of controlled substances safe, affordable and convenient. Meeting Health Canada's denaturing requirements, Rx Destroyer is an environmentally safe drug disposal solution that is especially helpful for controlled medications. The medication’s active ingredients are dissolved by the Rx Destroyer solution and are adsorbed and neutralized by its activated carbon. 

Daniels Secure a Drug drug deactivation products enable the easy and permanent removal of potential threats associated with medication disposal, reducing risk to those most vulnerable. Formulated with activated carbon, Secure a Drug products provide a science-proven method of safely deactivating drugs prior to final disposal. According to Health Canada, unused controlled substances must be "altered or denatured to such an extent that its consumption has been rendered impossible or improbable". Secure a Drug products provide a safe intervention for the harmful wasting of drugs into our waterways, while providing an easy method for physicians, nurses and pharmacists to securely dispose of drugs within the healthcare setting. 

Carbon Based Drug Disposal Science

When medications are added, the liquid solution begins to breakdown or dissolve the medication immediately upon contact. 

Once medications are broken down, the activated carbon begins a chemical digestion process that adsorbs the disposed medications. 

Once adsorbed, the medications are deactivated and rendered unavailable for misuse, alleviating risk of drug accessibility.
