What is required for the disposal of hazardous drugs?

  1. Federal approval

  2. Compliance with federal, state, and local regulations

  3. Only state regulations

  4. Approval from the DEA

The correct answer is: Compliance with federal, state, and local regulations

Disposal of hazardous drugs is a highly regulated process, and it is important to ensure compliance with all relevant regulations in order to protect the environment and public health. Option A, federal approval, may suggest the need for specific approval from a federal agency, but in reality, complying with all federal regulations is necessary. Option C, only state regulations, is incomplete as it does not mention the role of federal and local regulations in the disposal process. Option D, approval from the DEA, is important but is just one aspect of overall compliance with regulations. Therefore, option B is the correct answer that encompasses all levels of regulation that must be followed for proper disposal of hazardous drugs.
