Hi Longtrr,
Welcome to psoriasisclub.
(Un)used medication is not allowed to be passed on again. They cannot be used for other patients, because you don’t know how old they are and what happened with them. Of course yes “you” will know that, but the pharmacy is not allowed to believe that.
And the only thing a medical group or hospital will do, is throw it away in the chemical garbage bin.
So unfortunately you will have to give them back to the pharmacy (drugstore?) you have got them from.
The fact that you want pass them on is why? Don’t they work for you anymore? Is your psoriasis in remission? Are you on another drug ?
Cheers
Caroline
