1L Pharma Controlled Drug Denature Kit manufactured by Safer Options

As recommended by NHS England, all Controlled Drugs in Schedule 2, 3, and 4 (Part 1) should be destroyed by being denatured and rendered irretrievable before being placed into pharmaceutical waste containers. In line with the Misuse of Drugs Regulations (2001), the management and destruction of Controlled Drugs (CDs) in the health system is a shared responsibility between NHS England, service providers, regulators and the police, as the prompt and lawful destruction of obsolete CD stock is a matter of patient safety and public protection.

A broad range of kit options and sizes are available to suit different workplace demands.

The ampule can then be disposed of in the sharps bin.
