Hello,

I have a couple of unopened vials of Buserelin which I used for a previous transfer. I don't need them for my current FET protocol and they expire soon.

Does anyone know if it is legal to donate meds in the UK? I see it done all the time on US focussed boards (like Reddit) but not sure about the rules in this country.

Thanks!

No, it's not, sorry.

@Scirocco thank you. What do people do with unused meds then?

You need to return them to a pharmacy for safe disposal.
