Who will take empty pill packets?

Pharmacy reycling scheme The Little Packs, Big Impact initiative from Terracycle, launched in spring 2021, lets you drop off empty blister packs for pills in participating pharmacies. Use the map to find your nearest participating pharmacy. As far as we know, all branches of Superdrug are participating in the scheme.

Not taking/no longer taking pill packets


 * You can't put pill packets in your household recycling or take them to a recycling centre.
 * The recycling scheme is only for empty packets. If there are any tablets left in a blister pack that you want to get rid of, please still take them to a pharmacy but give them to a pharmacist for safe disposal rather than putting them in the recycling bin.
