Resumen

The environmental impact of drugs or pharmaceuticals is a topic of growing concern. Drugs have been found in all environmental compartments, especially in water. Although the main route of access to the environment for drugs is related to consumption and resulting excretion, emissions can occur in any of the complex life cycle of pharmaceuticals. Apart from their ecotoxicological effects, pharmaceuticals in the environment can also affect human health (e.g: antibiotic resistance). In this article, we will focus on the potential influence of drug pollution on the 6th Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), describing possible solutions. SDGs have a special relevance in developing countries, where water is more polluted with drugs. The “One-Health” approach, which considers the relationship between humans, animals, and the shared environment, is needed to understand drug pollution. Collaboration of all the stakeholders involved in the life cycle of drugs is mandatory. Considering the cost-effectiveness and sustainability of the measures will be necessary to prevent drug pollution from becoming an obstacle to obtaining the 6th SDG.
