Abstract
⺠We developed a simple risk prioritization system for prescription drugs. ⺠Ranking was based on prescriptions, metabolism, wastewater removal, and toxicity. ⺠The approach was performed on the 200 most prescribed drugs in the US in 2009. ⺠Unmeasured drugs such as levothyroxine and montelukast sodium had highest scores.
