Breast Cancer Breast Cancer Symptoms / Diagnosis Treatment Daily Life From Pam Stephan, your Guide to Breast Cancer What lurks in your medicine cabinet? I have items in there that claim to whiten teeth, calm mosquito bites, soothe coughs, and relieve allergy symptoms. There were also some expired prescriptions in there too! Dump Expired Drugs Safely I recently stood in line at the local law office and turned in my expired prescriptions. I'm talking about 6-year old bottles of pills! Tamoxifen, Aromasin, Tessalon Perles, and an assortment of antibiotics. I'd rather give these to the DEA than find them floating around in the public water supply.
