    Disposal Practices for Unwanted Medicines from Households in Johannesburg
    (University of the Western Cape, 2017) Mashiane, Mathabo Matopong; Obikeze, Kene
    A mixed research method was used where quantitative research facilitated qualitative research. Three questionnaires were drafted and distributed by email to respondents in the Johannesburg area. One questionnaire was for households. The second questionnaire was targeted at pharmacists who work in community pharmacies. The third questionnaire was aimed at South African Pharmacy Council (SAPC) registered Responsible Pharmacists for community pharmacies. In order to reduce bias the household questionnaire was also distributed as hard copies to access respondents in lower Living Standards Measures. Data analysis was done by using the Survey Monkey data analysis package.
