WHERE do all the tablets, capsules, etc, go to when they are returned to the chemist? Are they destroyed or do unused portions -- those in sealed packets -- go back on the shelf? If so, what happens to the money paid for the prescription in the first place? Also, does everyone realise that to stay on a dentist's register, you have to go at least once a year, even when you have dentures and no teeth of your own?
While attending my dentist recently more than one patient who came in was informed they were no longer on the register.
