Cytotoxic Waste Disposal

What is Cytotoxic Waste?

Cytotoxins are the most hazardous of pharmaceutical wastes. They can impair, injure, or kill cells, and many directly irritate skin, eyes, mucous membranes, and other tissue. They can cause local toxic or allergic reactions. They must be handled very carefully as even minimal quantities can be hazardous.

 

These wastes have special handling, packaging, and disposal requirements. Cytotoxic waste must be packaged inside puncture-resistant, leak-proof purple containers. All cytotoxic waste, including contaminated sharps, must be segregated and identified by color.

 

All Medical waste offers an extensive range of cytotoxic containers and waste bins designed explicitly to collect needles, syringes, and other sharps objects during Cytotoxic drug administration therapy.
