ABOUT US
Our mission & impact
We’re solving a public health crisis hiding in plain sight.
Medications help people heal, manage conditions, and live well. But when prescriptions go unused, they often linger in homes, quietly creating risk. Unused medications can lead to accidental poisonings, misuse, or environmental harm.
DisposeRx makes it simple for anyone, anywhere, to safely manage leftover medications in less than 60 seconds and for just $1.50 per vial.

OUR STORYDisposeRx was founded from a shared commitment to protect families and communities from preventable harm.
Our team has seen how leftover medications of every kind can ripple through homes and communities.
What began as a practical solution has grown into a nationwide effort to mitigate risk, raise awareness, and inspire lasting generational change in how medications are stored, managed, and safely disposed of.

THE DISPOSERX MISSIONTo create safer homes and healthier communities by eradicating the misuse of unused prescription medications.
We believe everyone should have access to the medicines they need—and the practical tools that mitigate the risk of what’s often left behind.
Our goal is to drive a generational shift in how medications are handled, stored, and disposed of, so that every home, pharmacy, and healthcare setting becomes part of a safer system.
