Abstract

A pharmaceutical waste disposal assembly () for disposing of raw pharmaceutical waste includes a receiver body () and a first reaction agent (). The receiver body () is configured to receive the pharmaceutical waste. The receiver body () includes a body interior wall (A) that defines a body interior (B). The first reaction agent () is positioned within the body interior (B) so that the first reaction agent () contacts the body interior wall (A) prior to receiving the pharmaceutical waste. The first reaction agent () chemically reacts with the pharmaceutical waste so that the pharmaceutical waste is rendered unrecoverable. The first reaction agent () can include at least one of a denaturant and a deterrent. Additionally, the first reaction agent () can include activated charcoal.
