Many pharmaceuticals intended for pets are similar or identical to those prescribed to humans and should be treated exactly the same metals. Sources of Pharmaceutical waste included health care institute, Agriculture, Flushing medications down to the toilets etc. These entities are affected by environment and by human beings. In human exposure to pharmaceutical and personal care product from environmental complex function of factors including concentration, types, pharmacokinetic of each drugs etc. Environmental effect on feminising effect on male fish and alter female-to mal ratio. When the pharmaceutical and personal care product (PPCPs) are active at very low concentrations and released continuously in large or widespread quantities Then Disposal of unused or unwanted pharmaceuticals is an emerging and complex environmental issue.
