[QUOTE="DavidGrahamJones, post: 1523131, member: 245335"] Unfortunately part of the problem is waste. There are many people who pickup their prescriptions and then put them in the bin. Hopefully your FIL won't collect another prescription. My MIL throws her statins in the bin every 2 months, she's 90 and there's a part of my head that says if you can reach 90 with your cholesterol the way it is, why try and change it. What I have tried to tell her is that she should tell her GP that she doesn't want or need them at her age, but she doesn't want him to give her a lecture and so throws them away. [/QUOTE]
