I continue to clean out my father's house, and I am discovering old prescription bottles full of pills (some of them very powerful pain medication) dating back as far as July of 1988! I've read online how to dispose of them, but man, oh, man! These are 26 years old!
Right now, go look in your medicine cabinet. If you find prescriptions for someone who died three years ago, or who passed away last month, or that pre-date the Internet, GET RID OF THEM!
