How Do You Dispose of Used Mounjaro Pens?

Used Mounjaro pens require special disposal due to needle contamination risks. Never throw them in regular trash or recycling bins. The FDA requires using FDA-cleared sharps containers, available at pharmacies for $15-25. Remove the pen cap and needle if detachable, but never attempt to remove built-in needles. Once the container is full, seal it completely and check with local waste management for disposal options. Many pharmacies and hospitals also accept sealed sharps containers for safe disposal.
