What Is The Safest Method To Dispose Unused Bottles Of Glycerine?

What is the safest way to dispose of unused bottles of glycerin (2 x 100 ml - both opened and partly used) and Friars Balsam (2 x 25 ml - unused). All bottles are many years past use by date. I am reluctant to tip them down the sink - can I put them in the household garbage? Many thanks.

Hi,
Any drug preparation should be disposed off safely. You need to dispose this as per the instruction provided in the drug label. If no instruction provided, then you need to dispose this to a safe place where chances of any child or animal to be exposed to this is minimal.
