Hi all,

Got some ivf drugs we bought but then never used in the end. Clearing out our house and about to chuck them out. Contacted the people we bought them off but of course we cannot send them back. Does anyone else have any sensible suggestions? Just feels crazy to throw 4/500 quid's worth in the bin but obviously there is not much market for second hand drugs!!! We would not be looking to make any money from these, just wanted to see whether anyone had any suggestions? Not sure it is altogether ethical to give these away online either but please PM me if you have any thoughts. Thanks

I know exactly what you're going through. I've got 2 unopened boxes Gonal F pens in my fridge but just can't throw them away as the drugs are so expensive. I may have a lucky fridge though as I'm now 6 mths pregnant with twins. Please let me know if anyone is interested or what to do with them... will prob take back to Kings soon.

thanks for the suggestions, much appreciated. I guess I just did not want to chuck them away as they are so expensive and it was a big decision for us to spend money on them in the first place! Will take to Kings unless anyone contacts me to say they are interested

It's illegal to sell the drus on to anyone, but I know that there are many people out there who would be more than happy to receive them from you for free to save money on their own IVF.


I think that what you are meant to do is hand them into a pharmacy for disposal.

      I'm happy to report that some foxgloves are now looking great in my garden. The bees are loving them. Also managed to grow some corn poppies from seed. I've left some decaying logs in the corner so maybe there are some stag beetles there.

      Southwark lists parks as an ecologically important space so don't understand the point.

      We have found 3 stag beetles in the old tree stump, and single nesting bees in the grass, so we're still not mowing it. I have taken the seeds head off the dart grass and trimmed the dead bluebells and it's alright.

      Back garden mowed on Monday, some of it for the first time this year.  Not a lot of interest in this grassland, but hoping for the promised rain this week as it needs it.  We use no tap water in the garden apart from conditioner tap water for the pond when rainwater storage runs out, very early this year. Purple clover, buttercups, rattle and ox eye daisies looking great in the front.  Seeds sown did not germinate due to lack of spring rain.  The meadow will be cut by hand when flowers die back, white clover will be out shortly and cutting the rest back may encourage the purple clover to flower again.  Loads of bees  Fun time is when the grasshoppers appear.
