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 specifies that such a system is a site of use method for drug disposal that alters the physical integrity of a drug formulation, making its active ingredients unusable for all practical purposes.
The bill is currently under consideration in the Senate Committee on Medical Affairs and will take effect upon approval by the Governor. This legislative action seeks to establish clear terminology related to in-home drug disposal, potentially enhancing public health and safety by promoting proper drug disposal methods.
