What is a Deterra Bag ?

Deterra bags are an easy way to dispose of both over the counter and prescribed medications. By disposing the drugs with the Deterra bags it makes it harmless to animals that may get ahold of the contents of the bag. By adding water you activate the carbon in the bag, the carbon then absorbs and firmly binds the drug and carbon together taking away all potency. The deterra bag technology was made by a company called Molecular Adsorption Technology (MAT). These bags were created to reduce the risk of drug abuse and the negative environmental effect from improper drug disposal
