  • Product Stewardship Financing Models: a Look at the Post-Consumer Product Stewardship Association
    Product Stewardship Financing Models: A Look at the Post-Consumer Product Stewardship Association Type of Brand-owner funded take-back program (mandatory in BC and Manitoba). Program: Pharmaceuticals and natural health products, including prescription drugs, nonprescription Scope: medicines and natural health products such as herbal products, mineral and vitamin supplements (accepted in household quantities). In 1997, the B.C. Waste Management Act – Post Consumer Residual Stewardship, required all Status: brand-owners of pharmaceutical products to be responsible for their products’ end-of-life disposal. Starting in 2000, PCPSA began managing the stewardship plan with the Medications Return Program. The Recycling Regulation (B.C. Reg 449/2004) has now replaced the previous regulation. Overview Unused medications are a health and safety hazard when stored in patients’ homes. They can also damage the natural environment when incorrectly used or disposed of. The Post-Consumer Pharmaceutical Stewardship Association (PCPSA) is a non-profit organization that directly administers the Medications Return Program through funding from pharmaceutical and consumer health products members. PCPSA was established by the industry to comply with British Columbia’s Waste Management Act, a law intended to reduce the environmental and public health risks associated with consumer goods, including leftover medications. The act requires producers to establish a system to safely collect and dispose of the public’s unused medications. PCPSA has been successfully administering the program since 2000 and now represents over 140 pharmaceutical and consumer health products brand-owners (see the final page for a full listing). While these programs are regulated in British Columbia and Manitoba similar programs are run on a voluntary basis in other provinces and territories The program has been extremely successful in gaining the support and participation of community pharmacies.

  • Product Stewardship Financing Models: a Look at the Post-Consumer Pharmaceutical Stewardship Association
    Product Stewardship Financing Models: A Look at the Post-Consumer Pharmaceutical Stewardship Association Type of Brand-owner funded take-back program (mandatory in BC and Manitoba). Program: Pharmaceuticals and natural health products, including prescription drugs, nonprescription Scope: medicines and natural health products such as herbal products, mineral and vitamin supplements (accepted in household quantities). In 1997, the B.C. Waste Management Act – Post Consumer Residual Stewardship, required all Status: brand-owners of pharmaceutical products to be responsible for their products’ end-of-life disposal. Starting in 2000, PCPSA began managing the stewardship plan with the Medications Return Program. The Recycling Regulation (B.C. Reg 449/2004) has now replaced the previous regulation. Overview Unused medications are a health and safety hazard when stored in patients’ homes. They can also damage the natural environment when incorrectly used or disposed of. The Post-Consumer Pharmaceutical Stewardship Association (PCPSA) is a non-profit organization that directly administers the Medications Return Program through funding from pharmaceutical and consumer health products members. PCPSA was established by the industry to comply with British Columbia’s Waste Management Act, a law intended to reduce the environmental and public health risks associated with consumer goods, including leftover medications. The act requires producers to establish a system to safely collect and dispose of the public’s unused medications. PCPSA has been successfully administering the program since 2000 and now represents over 140 pharmaceutical and consumer health products brand-owners (see the final page for a full listing). While these programs are regulated in British Columbia and Manitoba similar programs are run on a voluntary basis in other provinces and territories The program has been extremely successful in gaining the support and participation of community pharmacies.
