In pharmacy operations, what happens after the script gets filled is just as critical as what happens before. Reverse distribution — the process of returning, managing, and safely disposing of unsold or expired meds — is often sidelined, but it’s quietly doing the heavy lifting for compliance, cost recovery, and sustainability.
