Abstract

Tetracycline used in the treatment of common infections in children and adults. Taking outdated tetracycline (an antibiotics) can cause serious side effects. Expired Tetracycline was known to be responsible for kidney impairment. There have been rare reports of renal tubular dysfunction or Fanconi-like syndrome associated with ingestion of outdated tetracycline. Therefore outdated Tetracycline hydrochloride drug should be thrown out or discarded if there is any leftover. Discarding unused, outdated or expired tetracycline hydrochloride in the toilet is a common practice. But this method may not be any safer than throwing in the trash, because it still is contaminating water supply. Deposing of such drugs is a major problem in today’s pharmaceutical Industries.
