Keep Viagra 50mg tablets in their original container, in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. A temperature between 68°F and 77°F (20°C and 25°C) is ideal.
Protect the medication from children and pets. Consider using a locked cabinet or medication organizer. Never leave Viagra where others can easily access it.
When disposing of unused Viagra, follow these guidelines:
Medication Take-Back Programs | Many pharmacies and community centers offer safe medication disposal programs. Check online for locations near you. This is often the safest option. |
Flush Down the Toilet (Only if instructed) | In some cases, your pharmacist may advise flushing the medication. This is only recommended if explicitly advised and is usually applicable for smaller quantities. Always check the product packaging or consult a pharmacist. |
Mix with Unpalatable Substance | Mix the tablets with an undesirable substance like kitty litter or used coffee grounds. Seal the mixture tightly in a sealed plastic bag and dispose of it in the household trash. |
Never throw Viagra in the regular trash without taking precautions to render it unusable. Always consult your pharmacist or doctor for the best disposal method for your specific circumstances.
