When I finish my ozempic pen do I take it back to the pharmacy or do I just put it in the trash? For the needles no, I keep the needles in a thick plastic jar. But the stylus itself when it is empty what do I do with it?

Hello ma'am, did your pharmacist provide you with a container for the needles? Thanks for the feedback. The empty pen, without the needle, can be thrown in the trash. Sincerely, Tom Samaha, pharmacist
