    • Who is it for?

    • Description

    • How do I use it?

    • None of the above

This tab is specifically designed to provide information on how to use the product, which would include any instructions or guidelines.

    Contact amalgam can be disposed of in the 5-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The given statement is false because contact amalgam cannot be disposed of in the 5-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System. The 5-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System is designed for the proper disposal of dental amalgam waste, which is a mixture of mercury and other metals used in dental fillings. Contact amalgam, on the other hand, refers to the amalgam material that comes into direct contact with the patient's teeth during the dental procedure. Therefore, it requires a different disposal method and cannot be disposed of in the 5-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System.

    A. False
    Explanation
    The customer cannot use the 20-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System to dispose of their used healthcare products without being in a primary sharps container.

    • 2-Gallon TakeAway Medication Return System

    • Both A and C

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Both A and C
    Explanation
    Both the 18-Gallon MedSafe Receptacle and the 2-Gallon TakeAway Medication Return System allow customers to dispose of controlled substances. This means that customers can safely and responsibly dispose of these substances using either of these options. The 10-Gallon TakeAway Environmental Return System is not mentioned as an option for disposing of controlled substances, so it is not the correct answer. Therefore, the correct answer is Both A and C.
