The bill S. 653 aims to amend the South Carolina Code of Laws by adding a new section, 44-140-10, which defines the term "in-home drug disposal system." This definition describes such a system as a method of drug disposal that alters the physical integrity of a drug formulation, making its active ingredients unusable for all practical purposes.

The introduction of this bill reflects an effort to establish clear terminology related to in-home drug disposal, which may enhance public understanding and compliance with safe drug disposal practices. The bill is currently under consideration in the Senate Committee on Medical Affairs and will take effect upon approval by the Governor.
