Disposal of controlled drugs

Clearing out the (locked and out of reach) medicine cabinet), I found some oramorph.

It says dispose 3 months after date - does this mean take back to the chemist, or can tip the remainder?

take it to any chemist or doctor it needs to be disposed of safely

Can tip it down the sink and rinse well if 10mg/5ml.
