Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pills that you have found are unrecognizable without the external labels.
To dispose off these tablets, mix the medicines (do NOT crush tablets or capsules) with an unpalatable substance such as XXXXXXX litter or used coffee grounds.
Place the mixture in a container such as a sealed plastic bag and
throw the container in your household trash.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
