Answer:

Mix the medicines (do not crush tablets or capsules) with an unpalatable substance such as dirt, kitty litter, or used coffee grounds.

Then, place the mixture in a container such as a zip-lock or sealable plastic bag, and throw the container away in your household trash.

If the medication has expired or it’s no longer prescribed to you. Or if it’s dried out, discolored or crumbling
