Unused home medications serve as a source for poisonings, abuse, and misuse. Leftover medications include two primary categories: over-the-counter and prescription products, with prescription further classified as non-controlled or controlled substances.
Managing unused, unwanted and expired medications is a safety as well as an environmental concern. Safety and accidental poisoning concerns for smaller children and family pets are on the rise, however, headlines across the nation are focusing on two distinct areas of concern: the contamination of drinking water supplies with pharmaceuticals, and the rise of teen abuse of prescription medications.
Traditionally, we were told to flush unwanted medications down the drain or toilet rather than keeping them in the home. Although effective in preventing medication flushing creates a new and growing problem in the environment. Antibiotics and other medications in a septic system can destroy beneficial bacteria necessary for the system to operate. Wastewater treatment plants are not designed to remove or process many compounds found in medications that end up being discharged into our surface and groundwater.
Community Members, especially parents of teenagers, need a safe and consistent means of disposing of unwanted medications. According to the Monitoring, the Future Survey conducted by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), most of the teens reporting the use of medications say that they obtained them from friends or family members, with one-fifth to one-quarter reporting taking them without permission. Parents and caregivers need to understand the importance of safeguarding and proper disposal of their medications.
Here comes our idea “Medication take back events” collect medications from individuals and households. National attention is growing and more appropriate methods of safely disposing of unwanted medications are in the works.
The motivation of our project is to educate the community and bring awareness to the following issues regarding disposal of unused, unwanted and expired medications from the home and dispose of them safely to prevent poisonings, prevent prescription drug abuse, and protect the environment.
-
Illustrate the degree to which controlled prescription medications remain unused.
-
Identify specific classes/agents that are more likely to remain unused.
-
The objective of the system is to record all the features/details of the medications quantity prescribed and quantity remaining at the take-back events and generates the reports for public awareness and research motive.
-
Provide recommendations for reducing the accumulation of medications in homes.
Our Medication take-back application can be accessible by all the authorized members. The system will have the features like,
-
Built using an IONIC platform.
-
Can be used on iPhone and Android mobile phones.
-
Tested on Android and IOS platform.
-
Scan the medicine using a camera.
-
Report generation.
-
The generated data will be auto-filled.
