RxCarbon® Drug Diversion Prevention Pad for All Regulated Waste Containers

RxCarbon Pad Large and Small

RxCarbon® Drug Diversion Prevention Pad

The RxCarbon aBsorbent/aDsorbent Pad is an advanced solution designed to safely contain, sequester and deactivate liquid hazardous drugs and controlled substances inside regulated waste containers. Engineered with two layers of RP718 pharmaceutical-grade activated carbon, these pads aDsorb and sequester liquid hazardous drugs and controlled substances on contact.

 Available in two sizes (Large: 12″ x 12″, Small: 3″ x 9″), they offer spill capacities of 500 ml and 120 ml, respectively. 

Ideal for use in ALL regulated waste containers. RxCarbon Pad reduces exposure risks and supports compliant, responsible waste disposal in healthcare environments.

A Cost-Effective Solution for Drug Diversion Prevention

The RxCarbon Pad offers a smart, low-cost alternative to traditional drug diversion control methods.

This highly engineered absorbent pad delivers powerful added value over old-style pads at the same price. RxCarbon Pads include 2 layers of RP718 activated carbon that  sequesters drugs in the pad! 

By using RP718 pharmaceutical-grade activated carbon; the pad effectively aDsorbs and deactivates and sequesters controlled and hazardous drugs, reducing the risk of diversion, protecting our environment, and ensuring compliant waste handling. Unlike expensive destruction kits or complex neutralization systems; the RxCarbon Pad is simple, effective, and integrates easily into existing workflows within healthcare facilities.

Whether placed in RCRA hazardous waste containers, sharps containers, or non-hazardous pharmaceutical bins, the pad provides a reliable failsafe against environmental contamination and drug misuse. It helps organizations maintain regulatory compliance while reducing waste disposal costs. Ideal for hospitals, clinics, and pharmacy settings, RxCarbon® supports a more responsible and budget-conscious approach to pharmaceutical waste management.

Easy Integration into Existing Waste Containers

The RxCarbon® Pad is designed for seamless integration into your current waste disposal workflow. 

Available in two convenient sizes—Large (12″x12″) and Small (3″x9″)—these pads fit easily into a wide variety of regulated waste containers, including sharps containers, hazardous waste bins, and non-hazardous pharmaceutical waste boxes.

The easiest way to get started is to ENCOURAGE your regulated waste container provider to sell you containers that already include RxCarbon Pads.

Get started now by simply ordering  and place the pad at the bottom of your regulated waste containers before use. When excess liquid waste is expelled into the container, the RxCarbon® Pad immediately begins aDsorbing, deactivating and permanently sequestering the substances, preventing leaks, spills, and nefarious diversion. The pads is designed to adsorb up to 500 ml (large pad) or 120 ml (small pad) of fluid, making it ideal for high-volume environments or small-scale disposal needs.

Because the RxCarbon® Pad works with your existing containers and processes, there’s no need for staff retraining or changes in waste handling routines. This plug-and-play approach reduces friction while improving safety and compliance. It’s a simple but powerful upgrade to any facility’s hazardous waste disposal system.

Environmentally Responsible Waste Management

The RxCarbon® Pad empowers healthcare facilities to make a cleaner, greener choice when it comes to pharmaceutical waste disposal. Traditional drain disposal methods not only risk non-compliance but contribute to water pollution and long-term environmental harm. RxCarbon® eliminates this concern by deactivating controlled substances at the source, using highly aDsorptive RP718 activated carbon to sequester liquid waste inside the container.

This innovation prevents hazardous substances from entering municipal wastewater systems, helping organizations adopt environmentally responsible disposal practices. As sustainability becomes a growing focus across the healthcare industry, integrating the RxCarbon® Pad into waste protocols demonstrates both regulatory awareness and environmental stewardship.

Whether used in hospitals, outpatient facilities, compounding pharmacies, or doctors’ offices; RxCarbon simplifies sustainable disposal while enhancing patient and public safety. Small changes—like replacing traditional absorbent pads with RxCarbon Pads—can lead to a big environmental impact while maintaining normal day-to-day operations.
