Unused medicines cost NHS Highland over £3m every year. Stocks of unused medicines also pose a safety risk and can increase confusion about what medicines people should be taking.  There are also important clinical benefits of reducing waste. By identifying what medicines are not being taken it opens up the possibility to consider better alternatives.

During April and May NHS Highland is running a campaign to raise awareness and hopefully reduce waste.  Further information will be posted about the campaign.
