Medical Waste Generated by Pharmacies in Savanna
Pharmacies in Savanna manage a unique mix of regulated waste, primarily expired or unwanted pharmaceuticals including RCRA-listed hazardous drugs that cannot be flushed or landfilled.

Pharmacies operating in-store sharps disposal programs also accumulate sharps waste from community members that must be collected by a licensed waste hauler.
Compliance Requirements for Pharmacies in IL
Pharmacies in IL must comply with OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030), which mandates proper containment, labeling, and disposal of all regulated medical waste.
