When you drop a pill on the floor.
Disposable razor blades are a fairly cheap option.
Instead use a sheet magnet to scan the carpet.
A bathroom floor would be a no.
For me it would depend on where i dropped the pills a pharmacy is usually cleaner then a garage floor where there may be grease cat hair etc.
Wipe the pill off as best you can and unless it has visible.

There is no way to disinfect a pill that fell on a dirty floor and you cannot microwave or bake it for a few minutes to kill the germs.
I know my doc will not refill this medication b c of it being a controlled med i think that s what it is called.
Sometimes shards fall down on the carpet and i really just don t care that much because i always got a lot.
Rather than being annoyed that i had to count another 120 i was more curious about what she was going to do with the medication she just spilled.
However it is much better to think how to not lose the screws rather than how to find them when you lose them.
If the pills are big enough a scissor can be used to cut the pills at length.
The razor might not last very long because the fibers of the carpet are quite rough and quickly dull the blade.
The carpet was not wet but it was visibly a bit dirty.
Id my pill is the solution to spilled pills.
So i remember this shit and started looking at the carpet under the desk with a little pocket flashlight and that shit lit up like it was supermans ice cave.
I usually lay a towel on the desk and disassemble the device and place the screws on the towel.
The other day my pharmacist dropped a vial with an easy open cap that i had just counted and spilled 120 pills on the ground.
I dropped my pills on the ground and i am afraid that i will get sick if i take them.
The screws will then be much more.
She told me she needed me to count another 120.
So here s how to handle those spilled pills.
Jonesin for a fix i got to work and got a card and a comb hoping it would help.
Magnet on a tip is not efficient to scan the carpet.
We all feel guilty when we drop something valuable and our medications are valuable since they make us healthy.
These are used on the carpet to cut off the fibers at a certain length.
Fortunately with id my pill there s no need for guilt.
