About

About

Athletico Physical Therapy has teamed up with SAFE Project and the creators of the Deterra®️ Drug Deactivation and Disposal System to launch a Gone for Good™️ at-home medication disposal campaign that gives away free Deterra pouches to households nationwide.

Select Athletico clinics will have Deterra pouches available to our patients or members of the community through our clinics to dispose of drugs in their home. Each pouch uses activated carbon to deactivate up to 90 pills, 12 ounces of liquid, or up to 12 patches. In a simple three-step process, a user deactivates the drugs by putting them in the Deterra pouch, adding water, shaking and simply throwing it away in the normal household trash. Plus, the plant-based pouch makes it safe to dispose of unused medications without harming the environment.

Our mission is centered on patient care and through our industry-leading pain management program and opioid initiatives, we understand the importance of education and at-home disposal. Through our Gone for Good partnership, we want to show our commitment to significantly decrease the opioid epidemic through our combined efforts.
