Abstract:

An assembly for receiving fluid pharmaceutical waste into a fluid waste receiver includes a fluid receiver body coupled to a fluid receiver cap, and receiving solid pharmaceutical waste into a solid waste receiver includes a solid receiver body coupled to a solid receiver cap. The assembly comprises a receiver housing and a receiver lid coupled to the receiver housing. The receiver housing comprises a retainer base, sidewalls extending from the retainer base, and dividers extending from the sidewalls to divide an interior of the receiver housing into a receiver compartment configured to receive the fluid receiver body and the solid receiver body, and a cap compartment. A first of the dividers divides the receiver compartment from a first of the cap compartments configured to receive the fluid receiver cap, and a second one of the dividers divides the receiver compartment from a second of the cap compartments configured to receive the solid receiver cap.

Abstract:

A waste disposal system with a waste receiver for receiving pharmaceutical waste material. A locking assembly is secured to a fixed surface and actuated from a locked configuration to an unlocked configuration. A lock cylinder of the locking assembly may extend forward of a front wall of a receiver body of the waste receiver to engage a locking feature of the cover in the locked configuration. A cover retention feature may prevent axial decoupling of the cover from the receiver body. An engagement feature is moved to be disengaged from the receiver body, and the receiver body is moved away from the fixed surface to disengage the locking assembly from the cover. The cover is decoupled from the cover retention feature, and coupled with the receiver body to seal the pharmaceutical waste material. The locking assembly may be removed from a lock passageway for disposal of the waste receiver.

Abstract:

A pharmaceutical waste disposal assembly () for disposing of raw pharmaceutical waste comprises a first receiver body () and a first reaction agent (). The first receiver body () receives the pharmaceutical waste. The first receiver body () includes a receiver bottom (). The first reaction agent () is positioned within the first receiver body () and spaced apart from the receiver bottom (). The pharmaceutical waste reacts with the first reaction agent () to change the pharmaceutical waste in one of a chemical and physical manner so that the pharmaceutical waste is unrecoverable. The first receiver body () can receive fluid pharmaceutical waste and/or solid pharmaceutical waste. The first reaction agent () may include one or more of a denaturant, an emetic and a bittering agent. For example, the first reaction agent () may include one or more of quinine, ipecac and denatonium benzoate.

International Classification:

B09B 3/00
A61J 1/00

Abstract:

A pharmaceutical waste disposal assembly () for disposing of raw pharmaceutical waste includes a receiver body () and a first reaction agent (). The receiver body () is configured to receive the pharmaceutical waste. The receiver body () includes a body interior wall (A) that defines a body interior (B). The first reaction agent () is positioned within the body interior (B) so that the first reaction agent () contacts the body interior wall (A) prior to receiving the pharmaceutical waste. The first reaction agent () chemically reacts with the pharmaceutical waste so that the pharmaceutical waste is rendered unrecoverable. The first reaction agent () can include at least one of a denaturant and a deterrent. Additionally, the first reaction agent () can include activated charcoal.

US Classification:

206204

Abstract:

A pharmaceutical waste disposal assembly () for disposing of fluid pharmaceutical waste comprises a fluid receiver body () and a fluid absorber (A). The fluid receiver body () receives the fluid pharmaceutical waste. The fluid absorber (A) is positioned within the fluid receiver body (). The fluid absorber (A) absorbs and retains the fluid pharmaceutical waste. The fluid absorber (A) includes a plurality of levels (L, M, U) that are spaced apart from one another. The plurality of levels (L, M, U) can be oriented substantially vertically relative to one another so that the fluid pharmaceutical waste is distributed to each of the plurality of levels (L, M, U) of the fluid absorber (A).

International Classification:

B09B 3/00

US Classification:

2064591

Abstract:

A pharmaceutical waste disposal assembly () comprises a waste receiver () that receives pharmaceutical waste, the waste receiver () including a radio frequency identification tag () that is configured to transmit a radio frequency signal that identifies the waste receiver (). The pharmaceutical waste disposal assembly () can further comprise a receiver retainer () that selectively receives the waste receiver (). The radio frequency identification tag () is configured to transmit the radio frequency signal that is usable to track a location of the waste receiver () regardless of whether or not the waste receiver () is positioned within the receiver retainer (). The receiver retainer () can include an identification reader () that reads the radio frequency signal and is configured to store information from the radio frequency signal that inhibits use of the waste receiver () following removal from and repositioning into the receiver retainer ().
