Abstract
A cancellation feature () for a pharmaceutical waste disposal assembly () having a first surface () and a second surface () can include a first cancellation member () that is secured to the first surface () and a second cancellation member () that is secured to the second surface (). The second cancellation member () automatically moves from a pre-engaged configuration that allows engagement with the first cancellation member () to a post-engaged configuration that inhibits engagement with the first cancellation member (). The automatic movement occurs after engagement and/or during disengagement between the second cancellation member () and the first cancellation member (). The first surface () can form a portion of a receiver that receives pharmaceutical waste, and the second surface () can form a portion of a receiver retainer that retains the receiver. Conversely, the second surface () can form a portion of the receiver and the first surface () can form a portion of the receiver retainer.
