Abstract
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for medication disposal, e.g., at a medical institution or a pharmacy. For example, a system for medical disposal can comprise a receiving unit configured to receive a medication from a user. The medication can be an unused or leftover portion of a prescribed medication for a subject in need thereof. The system can comprise one or more sensors operatively coupled to the receiving unit. The one or more sensors can be configured to detect the medication received by the receiving unit. The system can comprise an analysis engine operatively coupled to the one or more sensors. The analysis engine can be configured to determine a score indicative of a management of the prescribed medication by the user, based at least in part on (i) the detection of the medication received.
